Scholastic Success with Reading Comprehension, Grade 3

We bought this for our 3rd grader who seemed to be struggling with reading comprehension. I was really impressed by this workbook. First of all, it is not super thick. It's pretty thin which is good for my son, with a total of 38 pages. He see's the big books and feels overwhelmed. Each day he does a new reading comprehension activity. The activities vary from reading a paragraph and answering the questions by referencing the paragraph, multiple chose, picture order according to the story and fact and opinion pages. Each activity is a page (on average) so it's easy to pull one of the perforated pages out and have them do it really quick. I am pleased that the activities very because it gives him all the different examples of how you use reading comprehension.

We did this with my child who was struggling in reading durning the beginning and middle of the school year. It was maybe 1 or 2 assignments that was a little confusing in this book but other then those it was easy to understand and explain. It is now coming towards the end of the year and we finished the book and on her recent reading score she passed above grade level so I am very happy with this book and will be purchasing the 4th grade level for this summer to practice.

As described because I bought it used. Therefore it is in pretty decent condition and only written in until page 11. Also the previous users used a pencil so I should be able to use an eraser and if the writing is still noticeable I can use my camera scan and print the page. Update, yes using the HP Smart Apps camera scan I was able to print the used pages so the previous answers could not be traced. But honestly just erasing the answers worked as well but sometimes my kid is super observant and would probably notice the outlined answers. I have posted a photo of one of the used pages using a scan app and one as is after erasing the answers. As you can see both are easily useable.

Helps my child to practice at home . To strengthen his skill set over the summer break .

Our TAG 2nd grader does extra pages in this workbook in order to be challenged, keep his brain occupied, and help him think more deeply about things. What I love is the explicit instructions on how to scan an article for the important information. It is exciting to watch my son really pick up these tools and then apply them. He also summarizes what he has learned after each reading and has learned new fun facts about animals, time periods, and vocabulary. I'm glad I bought a grade ahead. Good purchase.

A very helpful book to help reluctant readers improve or keep their current level of skills up during the summer months. My daughter needed help with focusing on the details and I like that these passages are just challenging enough that she had to go back and pick out specific details from the passages while using the test pages. It was a skill my daughter was having trouble remembering to do so having concrete questions to use (instead of having to make up my own questions to quiz her after reading) was very helpful. Each passage is different and my daughter liked that she could choose which story she wanted to read according to her interests. I would recommend this book.

I bought Spectrum Vocabulary and Scholastic Success with Multiplication and Division, Grammar and Reading Comprehension workbooks for my (soon to be) third grade son. I wanted to help him be prepared for the next school year and these were a great purchase. They are full of different types of activities that students will enjoy. It also helps me to understand the type of material to expect for the next grade and what to help him with when it comes time for standardized testing. Worth the purchase and quick shipping as well.

My son was dx with ADHD and having trouble with reading in large groups. I purchased this book for home as he needed to pass 3rd grade reading. This book helped in bringing his test scores up. The concepts were great. Not filled with pictures. I felt fine if the work was challenging for his age but it helped. He was promoted to 4th w/o summer school. I just purchased the 4th grade edition. I purchased one for my niece going into 3rd grade.

I think this series is very well designed for teaching english language skills. I think that the price is also very reasonable.

本種の英文書籍を手に入れるのが大変でしたが、豊富な品ぞろえがあってよかったです。

Love it . Interesting stuff

Me ha encantado, lo he comprado para mi hija de 8 años y es perfecto para ella, para hacer todos los días 15-20 minutos. No son los tipicos cuentos de siempre, son historias cortas interesantes para su edad

I teach English as a second language -- therefore having materials that be readily used and adapted to various students is paramount. This workbook offers one to two-page long readings with exercises that present the reader with an array of passages and various comprehension strategies and activities. They test a combination of spelling, phonics, main ideas, and foment vocabulary building. I recommend this to any teacher or parent.
