Customer Reviews

Wonderful for children in grades 4-8!

All pages are reproducible worksheets, which comes in handy if you have more than one child. We used this when my daughter was in 7th and 8th grade and was homeschooling but would be great practice for kids in any school. The sheets are filled with common writing errors and the student finds and corrects them. This is useful in today's world where you see spelling and grammar errors in newspaper articles on a daily basis! Five units focus on spelling, capitalization, punctuation, sentence structure, and style. There are overviews and also pretests and post-tests for each unit. My daughter loved this book!Find the Errors!: Proofreading Activities (011588e5)

Don't like where the answer pages are (before the section?!) but...it's a good review course book :)
