Grade 1 Reading

It contains practice worksheet but only based on rhyming words which is a disappointment for me but will work if someone needs to know and learn via rhyming words.

The grade 1 reading book is very useful in teaching children to learn to read. The best method is one page 3 nights a week to practice the reading skills. Not as much pressure for children to learn as they go learn at their own pace.

We love all Kumon books! We've used quite a few. Just like all others, it progresses the child slowly but surely! Fun exercises. The reading is based on writing, actually! This child becomes better both with writing and reading! My 5-6 year old did a great job and learned a lot!

Me gustaron mucho los libros de kumon para reforzar el aprendizaje y poner a practicar a mi hijo. Avanzó mucho durante el verano.

Kumon Reading 1 is a homework book that is suitable for children who are studying the KS1 curriculum to practise phonics and reading comprehensions. I found its no stress "step-by-step" slowly but firmly approach helps my sons, who doesn't like writing much, to improve his skills. The attractive illustrations, big letter font and colourful pages makes doing homework less painful. I found this a good introduction workbook. The book has 36 exercises. The first half of the book (exercise 1-26) covers short vowels, consonants combinations, long vowels and basic vocabulary. Then from Exercise 27 onwards, the book deals with introduction reading comprehensions. Each reading comprehensions is about 5-10 short sentances(less than 80 words). The answers required for the Reading comprehensions were in sequencing (which picture happened first 1-5), or True/ False, or "fill-in-the-blank" sentences style with key answers blank out, and the rest of sentences already printed. For example: Question: Is the character a boy or a girl? Answer: The character is a _____. (The child needs to write the actual answer: boy.) I feel that this makes learning process less stressful for beginners as it requires writing the key part of the answers only but yet they could gain ideas of how to answer questions properly in sentence format. My son certainly benefited from it. He likes working on Kumon Reading Workbook range much better than others.

My son is 5 years and is able to read by himself after I started to make him read and write in this book. Good for kids who are facing difficulty in reading and writing. Everyday I will make him read and write 2 pages from this book
