This is one in a series of workbooks, each of which offers an abundance of learning activities, exercises, and games that are presented with superb production values. Appropriate to the given age level, much of the material focuses on basic subjects such natural science, mathematics, history, and social studies while enabling children to strengthen their reading, reasoning, and writing skills. The editors of Brain Quest believe that:"All kids are smart - though they learn at their own speedAll kids learn best when they're having funAll kids deserve the chance to reach their potential - given the tools they need, there's no limit how far they can go!"I agree, while presuming to add that children will learn more and have more fun meanwhile if, when completing various exercises, adults are involved. As a parent of four and a grandparent of ten, I can personally attest to the pleasure an adult will also have. Each volume in the series is a WORK book. Exercises are completed with crayolas or pencils on the page on which it appears. Correct answers are provided. One caveat: Resist the temptation to control the learning process as a child completes an exercise.This volume, for Kindergartners, was written by Lisa Trumbauer, with Kimberly Oliver serving as consulting editor. It is worth noting that Oliver was 2006 National Teacher of the Year. The material consists of organized curriculum-based exercises that help children to gain an understanding of ABCs, phonics, spelling and vocabulary, 123s, shapes and colors, patterns, sorting and matching, time and money, community, science, and "Fun and Games." Also included are more than 150 stickers, an all-new Brain Quest Mini-Card Deck, and a fold-out "Ticktock Clock" poster.
The Brain Quest Workbook: Kindergarten is a large collection of activities geared toward the 5-6 year old set.The workbook is in sections, with a table of contents at the beginning and each section is color coded, and each page is numbered.The sections and subject matter cover ABCs, Phonics, Spelling and Vocabulary, 123s, Shapes and Colors, Patterns, Matching and Sorting, Time and Money, Community, Science, Fun and Games, and there are Brain Quest Extras- stickers, a mini-card deck (you cut it out), and a fold out "ticktock clock" poster.The book is well made, much nicer than the "homework" phonics workbook my pre-k student was given at school. The difference is that the BrainQuest book covers more areas and is more engrossing and practical than the school provided workbooks which seem to base their whole method on repetition rather than learning by doing/practical experience...The pages are colorful and friendly...No distracting brand name characters here...The illustrations are quite nice, not necessary, but they definitely bring a warm, happy spirit to the workbook and a happy mood when doing work can make the difference between success and a book like this becoming a door stop...The pages are perforated. This is a great feature if you are on the go and just want to grab a few pages as kid busy work in waiting rooms, stuck in traffic, on an airplane, or at a restaurant.The one downside I have found is that some workbook activities are not just one page, this means that you can't just rip out one page without taking 1/2 of another activity with you... I hope that Brain Quest prints many more of these but keeps all of the activities/lessons to one page or one page front and back...
