Great for Homeschool!

Helped get my children ready for standardized testing. Easy to use. Does not have science or social studies, however.

Really good practice, keyed to standards

This book has really good practice worksheets on each Califronia math and Language Arts standard, plus sample tests. You get more than just sample tests, which is good, so your kids can practice the specific skills being tested first. It's easy to use the practice worksheets over a few weeks, then use the tests just before the real test. Or, use the whole book over the Summer to prepare for a grade, or review. I think our kids did better last year because of this.

excellent

This book did an outstanding job of preparing my child for the state test. It gives clear, concise reviews for the test scope and provides drills for each topic. The problem items are very similar to those in the real test. Many test taking tips are given and demonstrated. I wish it had more pages. For additional practice, I found Beestar very helpful, too (a nice Houston community web site http://www.beestar.org). My child scored fairly high thanks to such like-real standard test drills.
