Table of Contents
"At the same time it is teaching language skills, it teaches the student how to think and analyze." -Tim, Oklahoma
"It was easy to use and instructions were very easy for students to follow independently. All of the skills covered in our standardized tests were covered in this book." -Learning™ Magazine Reviewer
"Last year my daughter did both of your Language Smarts books as her grammar study. They are superb! Thank you for enriching our homeschooling so much." -Charlotte, California
"We love Language Smarts! It is colorful, fun and effective. It makes Language arts much more fun for them, and I know they are getting a thorough curriculum." -Marianne, Florida
"I absolutely LOVE Language Smarts and so do my students! Several sections of the books will also prepare them for standardized tests such as the OLSAT and ITBS." -Mr. Robertson, Teacher, Michigan
"I think this is a great product! It definitely improved my child's language arts skills." -Lori, Homeschool Mom
"I love that I can simply hand her the book without preparation and generally she can do the lessons without needing assistance from me." -Shanna
"The kids must use what they have learned to demonstrate further problem solving skills and this is what, in my opinion, makes this product a step above other language arts a programs out there." -Katrina, Homeschool Mom
"I just wanted to share that I love your products! This is my second year homeschooling and I'm glad I found your products this early on. My 5 and 7 year olds just love doing Language Smarts; I love how its colorful, fun, and effective! It makes language arts much more fun for them, and I know they're getting a thorough curriculum." -Marianne, Florida
"I love the Language Smarts curriculum. My son enjoys it very much and can follow the simple instructions with ease. Thanks to The Critical Thinking Co.™, my son breezes through and scores high on his standardized and placement tests. Thank you so much for your wonderful material! I always recommend The Critical Thinking Co.™ when I am asked for recommendations." -Brenda, South Carolina
"My daughter was getting very bored with the language arts curriculum that I had chosen for her. She was so excited when the Language Smarts Level B arrived in the mail. Not only does she usually do it before I have the breakfast table cleared, her reading has improved so much that she is reading books to her younger brothers." -Rachel, Texas
"Language Smarts™ can be used as a core curriculum but it is also a great supplemental resource; it allows us to stray from the daily grind of our usual reading program. It provides practice of the same concepts but in a different format. Also, this volume is easily opened flat on a table -- the spine can be manipulated." -Jessica, Homeschooling mom
"I used Language Smarts™ when I’d changed over and over what we were using for LA because that stuff wasn’t working. I think it’s great for kids who don’t need a load of instruction and maybe just need some practice." -Shelse
