Students read a passage on their own, evaluate the passage, and then write their own composition based on what they have read.  Skills taught include summarizing, making inferences, determining purpose, and structuring a story. In the back is an answer key for the questions (written compositions would have to be graded separately). 142 pages, softcover.  ~Tara 

Publisher's Description of Reading and Writing Grade 6 (Kumon English Language Arts)
Kumon English Language Arts is a new program that is designed to strengthen reading and writing skills by teaching them together. Alternating reading and writing activities will give your child a chance to learn how to be a great reader— and how to use what they know about reading to improve their writing, too! Children will work with information, narrative, and opinion texts, and they will have ample opportunity to be creative in their own writing. An answer key will provide sample responses to allow users to check their own work, or to review their work with an adult.
Category Description for Kumon English Language Arts Workbooks

In typical Kumon style, this worktext is easy to read with a user-friendly format. This simple workbook teaches reading and writing skills concurrently and breaks down the writing process into manageable steps. If the student wants to write directly in the book, pages include an ample amount of space for the response, but some students may prefer to write on a separate piece of paper for longer compositions. Lessons focus on informational writing, narrative writing, and argumentative writing. ~Tara
