It's a good workbook with different activities, such as tracing, matching, coloring, mazes, word hunt, etc.The contents do not show which words are in the workbook, so it was hard to decide whether to purchase it or not. In the end I did because of other good reviews. However, I thought I'd write down the words, so that other parents won't have such a dilemma. Here they are:1. Jiffy words: a, the, I, am , is2. Busy words: see, find, run, come, can3. What's it like: big, little, long, old, pretty4. Colorful words: red, blue, yellow, green, brown, black5. Animal friends: dog, cat, bird, rabbit, fish6. Jiffy words: at, not, to, an, will, say7. Who's who: he, she, it, you, me, we8. Count on it: one, two, three, four, five, six9. Hooray for play: boy, girl, toy, doll, ball10. More busy words: go, get, ride, work, play11. Even more busy words: give, want, like make, look12. What's for lunch? egg, cake, milk, soup, banana, apple13. Where is it: up, down, on, under, out14. This & that: and, but, for, so, no, yes15. Jiffy words: have, be, has, my, do, was16. Head to toe: feet, leg, eyes, hand, head17. On the go: car, bus, boat, truck, train, plane18. Jiffy words: saw, this, that, said, who, what
I decided on this workbook after browsing through several series at a bookstore. I like the content and format the best and my kindergartener daughter loves working on this! Highly recommended for the second half of school year when your child has built up some experience from school.
I got this for my daughter for her birthday. She has learning disabilities so she has some trouble reading, but she was able to do all the exercises in the book, which was a real boost for her self-esteem. And it kept her busy and off the computer for hours. Great stuff. Highly recommended.
I gave this book to my niece for her baby ... she loves it and has already started exposing the baby to words/pictures. Reading is the foundation for all education so a fun, no stress start can't come too early!
So I'm that parent, making my kids do homework even when their teachers do not assign it, over breaks, and especially during summer. We've gone through a lot of workbooks, this is one of the best.I like to challenge them and also I've found with many books that they're really... well... remedial. You buy a K book for your K child and its all stuff he or she already knows. Sylvan here is a little bit better in this regard. I think this would have been good for my son when he started K. My daughter is the one using it right now, and she is still in Pre-K, she is very advanced though, started preschool when she was still 2. Anyways I like to keep my kids working on the grade above for homework. My son did 1st grade books all through K, so in that respect this is good.Sometimes I question the educational value of some of the tasks in some book, the ones in this book all seem good, many are similar to work the kids do in school, and my daughter has really progressed with this specific book. I just wish it was longer, she is going to finish it. I'm on today looking for a replacement. Not saying this is short, its above average in length for a workbook, I just want one just as good covering the same words for her to go through again, not sure I want to start 1st grade sight words when she is still in prek.
this is a very good book to use if you are looking for something to help your child learn to read at home or in addition to public school work. It does not have tear out pages though which I personally prefer
It's a very good beginner for pre-k and kindergarten kids. Forms basic words and exercises are good. Sylvan books are good.
This is a great asset to help teach my daughter to read and to reinforce things that she has already learned.Very simple which is nice so it is fun to learn as well.Fast shipping and will use more workbooks from Sylvan as my childrens ages progress.
