Being the author of both The Legend of Lucky and this companion study guide has allowed me to create a unique and fun learning experience for children. Full of engaging lessons, this easy-to-follow guide uses examples and exercises drawn directly from The Legend of Lucky. Saving teachers and home-school parents hours of preparation time, this guide provides a series of lessons to develop outstanding spelling, writing, and comprehension skills. The lessons supplement required school curriculum and include practice worksheets, quizzes, and answer keys. Each lesson begins with a detailed description of a specific concept, followed by examples drawn from The Legend of Lucky, and ends with worksheets to reinforce that lesson's concept. The vocabulary and writing sections provide activities, prompts, and writing ideas to develop a strong vocabulary and to stretch your child's imagination. The final section, Reading Comprehension, includes comprehension quizzes for The Legend of Lucky. During my reading-specialist training at the Neuhaus Education Center in Bellaire, Texas, I learned about excellent tools, many of which I have incorporated into this guide. Also included are invaluable materials taken from my eleven years of teaching dyslexic students, such as ways to help with letter reversal issues. Using adjunct material, such as The Legend of Lucky and this workbook, is a perfect way to make sure your child understands the lessons being taught, resulting in improved academic performance. Whether used for classroom instruction or on a self-study basis, your child can review concepts and proceed at their own pace. I am confident that this study guide will enrich the educational experience of your child. This time-saving guide builds upon The Legend of Lucky and includes: - Scientific Spelling with Spelling Rules and Worksheets - Was vs. Were and Worksheet - Vocabulary Development - Vocabulary Worksheets - Handwriting Aids - Creative Writing Tools - Writing Worksheets - Narrative Writing - Timeline Activity - Poetry: Examples and Activities - The Comparative Essay - Venn Diagrams and Activities - Writing Activities - Reading Comprehension Quizzes - Complete Answer Key.
