Item #PR01

Very easy to use, this series of four carefully sequenced workbooks helps you discover your children's learning strengths and weaknesses while they have a great time. The program develops your child's abilities in four major areas:

  • Motor--left-right tracking, mazes, eye movements, hand-eye coordination;
  • Visual--similarities, memory, figure-ground distinction and space orientation;
  • Auditory--similarities, memory, rhyming; and
  • Comprehension--categories, sequence, language, awareness.

Each workbook contains a diagnostic progress chart and suggested exercises for testing and remedying perceptual handicaps. By the end of the year you will have an excellent idea of your child's learning readiness and be able to see improvement in all areas. Pb.

This subpackage does not include the Instructor's Guide necessary to schedule these items. If you desire both a schedule and any possible Study Guides or notes for this package you will need to purchase the appropriate Instructor's Guide separately.

5 out of 5 stars by Heather J. on 2008-04-01
These books are not your average workbooks. The both test your child’s strengths and weaknesses with simple assessments that build as the child works through the books and it also works on those areas to develop the child’s abilities further than they would progress without assistance. Practically these books let me know that two of my children have a weakness in motor skills, so when they struggled with writing I knew it was developmental and not laziness. I took a relaxed approach, allowing them to progress at their own pace and now their writing is better the majority. Without these books I would have been tempted to push the issue even through they were not developmentally ready.

I agree that these are not your average workbook. I used these (so far) with my first son and without them would have never realized he was good at puzzles (mazes). Because we started them young, I took them slowly, and realized he may not have grown to certain things (hearing skill) but came back to them when he did. I really like these (will say though that we really haven't done #4, it's pretty tough!).

I attribute most of my daughter's development in Pre-K to these workbooks. As another reviewer stated, "These are not your average workbooks." You won't find anything like this at a major discount chain or teacher's store. Worth every penny and then some. Don't pass up.

These workbooks are definitely an excellent thing. They are not just a readiness set, they have challenged my oldest daughter all school year with just book 1 so far (we took it easy as she was interested, after all she was just 4 when we started them) I look forward to finishing the set with her, and am getting ready to order them for my second daughter to work slowly through as well. She will definitely benefit greatly from these books, as she has delays in a couple of the areas that these books work on. I can't wait to see her improve her skills with them, I hope SL keeps these workbooks as long as they can because I will be devastated if I can't use them for all our children (we have 4 so far) They are absolutely worth the money, and even more I think! Kudos to Sonlight for finding such a wonderful workbook set to include in their program!
