Spectrum Reading Workbook, Grade 8: Volume 26

My child is in 6th grade. I use this book to help her catch up during Covid, stay at home, Zoom schooling. She only has 2 to 3 hours of schooling online per day and no homework. This book is self-explanatory and lessons are easy to follow. Stories are short and I find it neutral. Example topics: "Moon Veggies", "Out of this World Experience", "Planting a seed for the Future","Dear President Obama", "a picture Worth a Thousand Laughs", etc. Topics are current and relevant. Students learn grade-level vocabulary, main-idea and supporting ideas, inference, lessons learned, etc.

I love the Spectrum workbooks. I first introduced these books to my homeschooled daughter when she had finished one grade of a different curriculum and I didn't think she was quite ready for the next grade but she needed something to work on. We never did go back to the other curriculum, just kept buying Spectrum. We especially like the Reading. It's just 2 pages a lesson, covers many Language Arts concepts (not just comprehension), and my daughter finds them very interesting to read. She has learned a lot just by the reading section, let alone what she learns from answering the different kinds of questions that go with each reading. This is the book she goes to first in the morning and often goes ahead in her lessons. Whether you need it as a supplement to your child's regular school work or for summertime work or your child's only reading curriculum I am sure you will find this book meets your needs.

Very good

Grade7に引き続いて購入。週1の個人の英語レッスンで使用。色々な分野の文章があるので、色々な単語や文に触れられていいと思います。英文で解答する事も多いため、今後受けるであろう大学2次試験や各種検定試験の対策にもなるのでは？と思っています。後ろに解答もついてます。続けてると少しずつですが、知らない間に力がついていってるようです。
