Kumon Grade 2 Reading (Kumon Reading Workbooks)

great practice book for a bit extra homework for 2nd grader who needs a bit reinforcement.Very clear instruction, nicely arranged, good quality paper.

Every summer I buy workbooks for my two boys. This year I chose Kumon, I purchase the whole collection of Grade 4 for my son going into 4th grade and the whole collection of Grade 3 (thinking Grade 2 would be too easy) for my son going into 2nd grade. Later on I found that my younger son had difficulties in some areas in Grade 3 so I bought Grade 2.This has been a great guidance for my kids and I. The books helped my kids learn step by step and I really do see improvements. Its great for me, I simply use the answer sheet to correct and it helps me find out what their weaknesses are. Overall I really like Kumon workbooks compare to previous companies that I have purchased because I do see improvements. Next year I will purchase Kumon again.

All vocabulary the same like in school program

Helped my son over the summer but I felt it was too basic for him and very easy. It didn’t really hold his interest and I’m not sure he ended up doing that much. I hoped to use it as a review - next time I would just age up and challenge him a bit more

My son finished this book over the course of the school year, I use these books as supplements for when my kid doesn't have any assigned homework. The rule in our house is at least 30 minutes of homework per day, so if the teacher hasn't assigned any, we turn to these books. This particular book is excellent in that it progressively gets more challenging. It has a series of short stories and then the child answers questions, practices handwriting, etc. There is a spot for the reviewer to "grade" the answers and enter a score, and he liked that too.

This is good for transition from 1st to 2nd grade. The first half of the workbook introduces spelling structures and vowel sounds in a scaffolded method. The second half is reading comprehension. It moves from short passages to longer ones. Main idea questions, then detail qustions and finally detail questions.

I have ordered all the books in the 3rd and 4th grade series...math and reading/writing. After I ordered 2 books, I was so impressed that I wanted them all. It is perfect for "filling in the gaps" for my son. He can work at his own pace and continue learning throughout the summer. We are going to continue with these books throughout the school year. I would highly recommend these books to any parent who wants to help their child make major improvements in reading and math.

Kumon product line is great. I have been using their workbooks and I highly recommend them. Just be careful on some of the books like the learning with money one because the prints are very small that they are hard to see. Overall I enjoy these books in teaching my toddler. Good job, Kumon!
