I was looking for a comprehensive test preparation book for my 3rd-grader and I found a gem! This book takes testing apart step-by-step, clearly explaining what topics show up on standardized tests, how to approach each of those topics, and provides fantastic tips on how to find answers even when you may be unfamiliar with the topic at hand. I am certain that this book is going to prove invaluable in preparing my child for standardized testing. One of the best buys this year!
Good book even though I ordered the wrong one...lol

This was a very helpful test review book. I meant to order the CRCT one by the same company, but apparently in my haste I must have grabbed the wrong one. This one was excellent too, just not as CRCT specific. We give the CRCT test every spring..
Very useful for SAT test preparation

A high quality workbook in the spectrum series. It organizes 3rd grade math and reading in progressive topics and gives drills on each of them in standard test format. Very comprehensive. The content is similar to the Iowa Test of Basic Skills. Well designed problems and questions. Easy to follow test skills are introduced for the first timers as well. If your child has never experienced a standard test. This is the book to start with. It will definitely help your 3rd grader grasp the fundamentals. My son finished this thin book in 4 weeks. To keep up the practice, we also use a Houston community web site beestar.org. It provides free daily math exercises in standard test format. My son does very well there thanks to the solid skills he learned from this book. I highly recommend it.
