Weekly Reader: Summer Express (Between Grades 1 & 2) [Paperback]

"Is there is one, and only one, activity ALL teachers would agree on, that is that children MUST be engaged in reading during the summer. Anybody knows this. It is a fact that reading is the most important skill a child can learn in school. Without reading, there is no writing, and therefore, no academic skills can be accomplished.

These guides help parents ease the pain of having to force kids to read. They are very well designed, they motivate young children to read, and they get the basic skills across really well.

Get it and see it for yourself. The price is great, and this should be a no-brainer." --Benjamin

"Scholastic has made another wonderful book and program. I like that this Summer Express program focuses on math, reading, writiing, grammar and vocabulary, all aimed for between grades 1 and 2. I like how it is organized with the week number, day number and focus for that work page in the top corner of each page. It gives a quick reminder of where we should be and what objective we're focusing on. The pages are simple and yet provide the practice and talking points for further learning. The back of the book also provides the answer key for each page, in an easy to find and read format." --Mimi
