Skill Sharpeners: Science, Grade 2

This is a great supplement to a language arts curriculum! We homeschool and use this for one child who has more difficulty with spelling and it’s easy to complete for him and has drastically improved his letter understanding in a number of weeks

My daughter has all the books in this series. She's just finishing second grade and she loves reading these books. She can't wait to find out what happens next. They are a great encouragement to read!!

So far we're enjoying this for homeschooling

I like the structure they have in this book. They first introduce the weekly spelling words, the child writes them, then they have different activities they do regarding those words such as fill in the correct word in the sentences, and at the end of the section they have a spelling test. I'm not sure if the words are a second grade level though. My 6yo finished up his 1st grade spelling so I started him on this to see how he would do on second grade level words and every section he would tell me that the words were easy then would ace the spelling test at the end of the sections. Either way it was a good book to get your child familiar on spelling words that are often used on a daily basis and give them practice with their writing as well. I've done other spelling books and overall this has been my favorite, I'd definitely recommend!

I love this workbook for my homeschooled second grader! It gives weekly spelling lessons as well as grammar lessons. I break it down to a few pages a week & a spelling test on Friday. This book is exactly what I was looking for!

Since these books provide a variety of skill sets, I find them useful for my resource classroom. They're perfect for guided and independent work, and my students adore using them.

I kind of hesitant to purchased the Evan Moor book at first but I did give it a shot, and my son love the book.from now on this is the workbook for my homeschool first grade son,I pulled him out from his school because of the teaching is like nothing at all. Some of the book is a bit pricey, and hope they have a sale, I do recommend this Evan Moor books.

I will be using this book as a base for my 2nd grade son's spelling curriculum. The lessons are "word family" and "rule" based. There are 12 units of 10 pages each and a test at the end. This means each unit will last 2 weeks and really reinforce the skills. The pages are colorful and there is a wide range of activities from copying the words, punctuation, word meanings, parts of speech, puzzles and more. I am pleased with this book for our spelling curriculum and will purchase more from this series and publisher.

We are a homeschooling family and use this book for my 2nd grader to improve her spelling skills. She uses it everyday and it's a big help. I'll be doing a more in depth review on my Instagram: @mycrazyhomeschoollife

Good

might be okay for others, but for my ESL students who don't speak English this was too difficult - I had to return

Very good practice book for year 2 children. My child enjoys doing homework with this book.
