It tells parents what in the standard tests and provides instruction and exercise for developing your child's listening and choice eliminating skills before diving into tests on the basic skills. In addition to ELA and math, this book also touches base on science, social studies, and technology.

We liked it very much and hoped the book would last longer. To continue the learning, we found a nice Houston community web site (http://www.beestar.org) that offers similar practice every week. My child's skills as well as knowledge are improved significantly from such test prep practices. Highly recommend.

Great presentation - pages are not busy and the font is the appropriate size.

Great organization - begins by telling parents what to expect (i.e. children in K-2 are not usually required to fill out scantron forms and they must be good listeners to perform well on the tests). Also provides instruction and practice opportunities for developing your child's listening and guessing skills before diving into tests that are focused on the basic skills. In addition to the standard basic skills (language arts and mathematics), this book covers science, social studies, and computer/technology.

This is a great book for preparing a young child for his first standardized test. It worked well for preparing my 5 year old son (1st grader). The content in this book works well for a first grader who attends a school that uses second grade textbooks.

Great tool to assist a child with his/her preparation for the second grade Iowa testing.
