Description
A language arts workbook that's fun? SOLD! The variety of activities here accommodates different learning abilities: magic squares, twisted words, palindromes, acrostics, rhymes & jumbles. Each activity comes on a single, perforated page for ease of use. Topics covered include spelling, vocabulary, compound words, and loads more. I especially like the pages with the license plates! For example, you are given something like 5 FPV 031 or DLK 111 and come up with some silly inferred meaning for the letters/numbers (such as Five For Perfect Volume 31 or Dad's Little Kids x3). The magic squares take a lot of critical thinking skills to complete! It provides a good mix of challenges and is nice to use for warm-ups, early finishers or children waiting their turn with Mom or Dad. Reproducible for classroom/home use only. Answers in the back, 46 pgs, pb. ~ Sara
