QUICK SHOPPING
Summer Brain Quest
Packed with a huge variety of learning/review activities in math, science, English/language arts, and social studies in a colorful and engaging format, these reasonably priced books will "wow!" you as much as they will your students. A pull-out map/game board provides a record-keeping path as the student completes each of eight color-coded levels marked by page-by-page stickers and a completion award. It's a fun, innovative approach. But there's so much more! Activities are aligned to the CCSS so you know it's covering the content found at particular grade levels. Students are encouraged to get outside with scavenger hunts and games, complete with special stickers. There's a great summer reading list of fiction and non-fiction titles. There’s even a collection of cards for a quick review game. A full answer key of reduced copies of the student pages is provided. 160 pgs, pb. ~ Janice
