Designed to supplement the skills your child's grade level covers, each workbook in this Shell Education series holds one unit to complete per month (with 10 units total, use one as a summer bridge!) Color-coded units strengthen skills in language arts (reading comprehension, word study, grammar and writing), math, social studies, science, and critical thinking, plus a bonus game and extension activities. While following those main categories, the PK level emphasizes the basics: letters, writing, numbers, shapes, math, and colors. The appendix includes an answer key (with some solutions) and a listing of each unit's standards. Additionally, you'll find a letter to the family, suggested family enrichment activities and a Certificate of Achievement. Perforated, 168 pgs, pb. ~ Ruth
