With over 1,000 locations Sylvan Learning has been North America’s leader in helping children succeed in school for over 30 years. Now Sylvan Learning has come out with products to guide parents in helping their kids catch up, keep up and get ahead. Since no one cares more about a child’s education than their parents, these workbooks are a wonderful idea. The 3rd grade and 4th grade ‘Super Reading Success Workbooks’ are available to purchase at the Sylvan Learning Bookstore now for only $18.99. Complete learning kits (pictured on the left) are available for $79.99. The Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade and 5th grade workbooks will be availble later on this year.

I had the opportunity to review the 3rd grade Super Reading Success Workbook. It is a 3 in 1 workbook which includes spelling, vocabulary and reading comprehension. My first thoughts looking through this book was that it would be perfect for homeschooling families or a summer workbook because as we all know kids forget a lot of what they learned in class over the summer! I even learned a few things looking through this book like what a comparitive and superlative is – see, I forgot some of what I learned in elementary school!
This book is extremely well organized. I love how each activity in a section connects to eachother, which allows the child to really grasp the concepts. The pages are full of interesting stories and fun activities. The workbooks also make it easy for kids to check their own work which will help them gain confidence in their skills. You can download free pages from the workbooks at the Sylvan Learning Bookstore to find out if this is something you would like to purchase for your child./
