Reviews
We use the Writing Activities in conjunction with The Family Readers books to improve each student's reading comprehension. We discuss each book and reinforce its meaning with writing activities.
--Hester Rippy, Liason for the Lehi, Utah Public Library Literacy Center.
Because we used The Family Readers, our daughter's first reading scores were eight times higher than average but her reading comprehensive score was average. The Writing Activities would have improved those scores drastically.
--Robert Stevens, President, WriteExpress Corporation
Not only did the Writing Activities help with students learning to read, it improved their spelling and language skills.
