Decent worksheets, badly organized book
The questions themselves are good, but this book is put together SO haphazardly.The pages are perforated, which is nice if you're making copies, but I wasn't. I bought this as part of our 7th grade homeschool.I'm glad for this book just because it gives me activities to go with the novel, but that's about where my good review ends. The book is ordered in 5 chapter chunks, with no sense of order within those chapters. The worksheet to go with the prologue was on page 22, which was after a worksheet on chapter 4. Many of the reading questions scope across multiple chapters. I had to really look through both the novel and the workbook to match exercises with chapters.The book has certain exersises broken into "tier 1" and "tier 2". I ripped many of the tier 1 pages out and threw them away, but for the vocab lessons I didn't like the way the tiers were divided. Tier 1 was literally given the definition, while tier 2 didn't even get a context reference. So I covered the definitions for tier 1 and told my daughter to use her context clues to guess the definition in the blank for tier 2.I've organized the pages to use with the book as follows:ReadingDay 1 -P 14&15prologueP 22Day 2-Ch 2P 16Day 3 -Ch 3&4P 21Day 4 -Ch 5P 19 & 20Day 5 -P 24-26Ch 6Day 6 -Ch 7 & 8P 30Day 7 -Ch 9 & 10P 31Day 8 -Ch 11P 29Day 9 -P 34-36Ch 12-13Day 10 -Ch 14&15P 40Day 11 -Ch 16&17P 42Ch 18P 41Day 12 -P 44- 46Ch 19Day 13 -Ch 20-22P 52Day 14 -Ch 23P 51Day 15 -Ch 24-25P 50Day 16 -EpilogueP 59, 61, 64Hope that helps some of you out

Not the actual book
This is great if you are a teacher , I though it was the actual book, so that’s why a 3 star.

Everything is made for you!
I’m teaching ELA 6 for the first time and this is saving my life! All activities so far (prologue to chapter 5) have been useful and helpful for my students.
