Book Reviews of Modern Curriculum Press Phonics: Level A

Book Review: great all around phonics workbook
Summary: 5 Stars

We've used the K and A (first grade) for homeschooling and have not been disappointed with either. Both volumes seem to go slower than other phonics workbooks we have tried but they are inexpensive enough that I don't mind skipping around and just using the pages I feel will be most beneficial. I ordered this book here after buying it at a homeschooling conference this spring and finding out I had purchased the old edition. This new edition has much more color and a better layout and was only two-thirds the price of the old edition I purchased! Because the books are a bit behind other books at the same grade level I have had success using the K level for a second semester preschooler then beginning this A level volume with a mid-year kindergardener. The spelling pages have proven particularly beneficial. These pages have pictures with incomplete words that the child needs to complete, it's helped my daughter learn lots of words and is something that is not included in other phonics workbooks. Overall I like MCP phonics (and their math as well) as a supplement to a complete phonics program or as an extra workbook for kids who like them or want busywork that isn't just coloring for car rides. When I was learning to read about 20 years ago my school used an older edition of these 'plaid' MCP phonics workbooks in conjunction with lessons the teacher gave. It's a great product by a reliable publisher that has stood the test of time.
