Brain Quest Workbook: 1st Grade Revised Edition

Great workbook to add into homeschooling curriculum.

Very well worth it， very thick and very colorful, and the content is very thorough. I definitely recommend it and I was referred by one of my friends.

Definitely worth having. Very useful for quick learning lessons for my 1st grader

I bought this book to help keep my boyfriends young daughter in the habit of school work on her summer vacation between kindergarten and first grade. At first when I told her she was going to do some work when she came over she was resistant to the idea. But once she saw the book, she immediately opened it, picked a page and started working. For her, it looks fun, unlike the xeroxed copies she got at school, these pages are in full color. It seems more like a fun activity book or game to her than "schoolwork." The pictures are cute, there are lots of animals and fun scenes, sometime I see her going through the book just to look at the pictures. Like I said I bought this book to keep her in the habit of working and thinking, and this book does the trick. Much of the book is phonics and letters, which were much to easy for her, but this didn't really bother me. In fact it encouraged her because she was able to complete whole pages without having to ask for help. Now that we're getting to the part where she writes sentences, I feel it is more at her level. There is also math stuff, which they present in such a way that it seems like your playing games {Example: Which monster is taller? The picture shows two monsters standing by rulers, if your child can count and knows which numbers are greater than others, they'll find the answer.} There is also a science section, one page has the child color everything in the picture that is a plant green. The concepts are easy to understand and are fun. Some of the activities she is able to complete on her own, but needs more of an explanation from me. For example, the which monster is taller exercise required me to explain to her how we use rulers to measure different things in different ways. But that's all part of teaching, you cant expect a single book to teach everything without any guidance from you! In the back of the book, there are answers, stickers and a certificate of completion. She's already looking forward to getting the grade 2 version of the book!

My daughter really likes this. It’s easy for her to use independently and not too much on each page so she can feel successful

Great quality, good content. Great supplement to homeschooling. My daughter is 6 and she looks forward to it. Fun colors and pictures!

Perfect for summer and afterschool activity.

Great workbook for 1st grade students.
