Amazing, clear, effective
At the moment I'm homeschooling my 5 year old. Teaching him to read seemed like the single most intimidating thing I'd have to teach him, so I was quite nervous. But this book did the trick. It was really quite amazing to see it happen. The book is clear, simple and easy to use. My son has also enjoyed it, and so it hasn't been a struggle at all. I supplemented this with another workbook that teaches beginning sight words. Highly recommend.

Answers given to child in advance - Still a must have for beginners.
I purchased this book for independent seat work for my 5 year old.PROS: The content is excellent to help reinforce phonics CVC words and getting my daughter started with reading comprehension. I also purchased 180 days of reading for 1st grade because the kindergarten level wasn’t challenging enough for my daughter. CONS: The answers is right at the top of each page which allow word picture match. My daughter quickly figured that out and simply glanced at the pictures and words and started to match. She wasn’t reading the words.Please cover up the answers on the top so the child can check after they read and match. The first grade level is strictly reading small paragraphs or stories then you answer the questions which I absolutely love.If you buy this book I recommend you hide the top by gluing thick white paper on the top. Don’t glue the bottom so you can flip it up after the child reads the word and matched the picture.I have updated my review to give this book all 5’s simply because all of the hard work by the author, editor and publishers.This curriculum along with Spectrum Phonics (grade1 &2) and Smart Phonics helped build my 6 year old confidence and her reading skills.She likes reading🤗🤗🤗😃😃😆😆I purchased so many books and this serious is a must have. If you have just started looking for books let me save you some money.Spectrum Phonics (grade 1, and 2;If your child is just starting to learn phonics you might want to include grade K)180 Days of reading (grade K and 1)Smart Phonics- (this is for an advance student, books 4 & 5.These books are expensive so don’t purchase levels 1 -3, buy the Spectrum books instead.Reading (grade 1) by Flash Kids180 Days of Spelling and Word Study (grade 1 & 2) .I also have Spectrum Language Arts (K and 1). The kindergarten book has more examples. Sylvan Language Art level 1.I have several other language arts books Because I’m trying to find the perfect combination for our family.Before you introduce the first book watch several YouTube videos by Have Fun Teaching. Phonics and ABC. They Work!

This Workbook Focuses on Reading and Comprehension
My daughter loved the book. I enjoy the entire 180 Days of . . . series of books from "180 days of Reading to. . . . . 180 days of Science," they are all well done and comprehensive. 180 days of reading for Kindergarten is probably one of the best.However, unless your child is an advanced kindergartner and/or had an excellent pre-school experience, this workbook should not be started until late December of their kindergarten year. That being said, this workbook truly represents the high standards and curriculum that has now become kindergarten. Kindergarten has now become 1st grade!The book is designed to re-enforce (or teach) four main activities: (1) learning to read foundational words, (level one words) (2) simple spelling (3) reading comprehension and (4) simple sentence writing.I found it worked best when my daughter completed a week's worth of work in one day, since each day's lesson was part of an overall theme and built on the prior day's lesson. However, each child is different and the good thing about this workbook is that it can be worked at your pace. My daughter started the workbook in late November and completed it in late April. The best part of the book is day 5, where you are required to read the story and then complete the story with your own story line. My daughter loves this part and wants to do it right away! I plan to start "180 Days of Reading for 1st grade" in the late the summer.Parents note well, this is a reading comprehension book, if you are looking to teach your child to actually read, you need a phonics book.

Really helped 6yo with reading and comprehension
Homeschooled 6yo - struggled with reading and comprehension curriculum we use. He can read, but if you ask any questions it's obvious he wasn't comprehending it. Even though he was at the end of the program (about to enter 1st Grade program), I chose to purchase this K book to reinforce what he knows and help build on what he was struggling with.I really like the layout. I can easily rip out 3 pages (1 week activity); he does all 3 pages at the same time because each daily lesson has a common theme. I've noticed a big difference in his comprehension and we are only half way thru the book.It wouldn't, in my opinion, teach reading, but a great reinforcement when working with a curriculum. I will definitely get the next book!

Great for K and summer before or after
This book is repetitive in the format. Introduces 3 new words like “pig” “dig” “wig” on a page. Then a story the kids can sound out followed by some comprehension questions. Then, it has a story they can read along with a “what happens next” drawing and sentence space.You’ll need to actively teach, not just plunk them down with the worksheet, but I’ve found the reading level really good for my Kindergartener starting the summer before K. It is definitely challenging enough. Most other books for K level seem to just have them tracing letters. First grade books are a little too tough. Once your kiddo is ready to start short words, this is a good book.

Uma ajuda para professores
O livro tem lições bem escritas que podem ser impressas direto do CD player que o acompanha. Estou utilizando com meus alunos e o resultado tem sido bastante positivo.
