Customer Reviews

nice practice book for the real tests
A high quality workbook in the spectrum series. It organizes 3rd grade math and reading in progressive topics and gives drills on each of them in standard test format. Very comprehensive. The content is similar to the Iowa Test of Basic Skills. Well designed problems and questions. Easy to follow test skills are introduced for the first timers as well.

If your child has never experienced a standard test. This is the book to start with. It will definitely help your 3rd grader grasp the fundamentals. My son finished this thin book in 4 weeks. To keep up the practice, we also use a Houston community web site beestar.org. It provides free daily math exercises in standard test format. My son does very well there thanks to the solid skills he learned from this book. I highly recommend it.

Spectrum hits the Mark!
I was looking for a comprehensive test preparation book for my 3rd-grader and I found a gem! This book takes testing apart step-by-step, clearly explaining what topics show up on standardized tests, how to approach each of those topics, and provides fantastic tips on how to find answers even when you may be unfamiliar with the topic at hand.

I am certain that this book is going to prove invaluable in preparing my child for standardized testing. One of the best buys this year!

Disappointing
Spectrum has completely redone this series of books, cutting the number of questions by what seems like half! They have also included questions where the student must write essays, etc. I only wanted multiple choice questions and felt like I wasted my money on this book:( I won't make that mistake in the future!
