ChristinaH811: I had ordered this exact book from 2 other sellers from a "different source" and was extremely disappointed when I received a different version than what was pictured. I'm so glad I gave it a 3rd try and came here this time! This is the exact book and the exact version I've been looking for! It is in perfect, brand new condition, and it was very fast shipping! Thank you so much!!!

DS: Because of Covid, I home schooled my granddaughter and this book has been a go-to-tool from the beginning until now. It will definitely get your little one fit for first grade and beyond. I absolutely loved the learning sequence and being able to see some of the things I learned as a youth in the book. So here it goes....I'll recommend this book to any parent that's homeschooling their child or children. I'd also recommend this book to a parent who has extra time and wants to teach their child a little more than what's being offered at school. It's really foundational learning and I'm enjoying it as much as my grandchild is.

Zia: I’m a first time homeschooler with zero background in teaching. I have been at a loss of what and how to teach my child, and this has put my mind at ease. It also has everything in it that you would need (full poems/stories, history lessons, etc.) with additional suggestions for further teaching or reading. It’s so much cheaper than a regular curriculum, but it really has almost everything you need. It gave me ideas for projects and field trips to supplement, and you wouldn’t get those in a regular curriculum anyway. Save your money and buy this book.
It’s a first grade book, but my 4 year old already finished our kindergarten curriculum and is begging for more. His attention span is much shorter than a normal first grader, so I like that it has shorter sections that I can pretty easily use as daily 15 minute lessons. I feel confident that when we finish this book, he will be completely prepared for second grade. And of course, we will be buying the next book in this series.

Bobby Mack: this was good to have. Lots of literature to read to the kids and I only needed this one book. Very convenient when space is at a premium (Japan). And just a really good book.

J.L. Farnsworth: 'What your first grader needs to know' is by far the best book that I have purchased for homeschooling. I believe it's a must have for every homeschooling family wondering if they are covering what they should. Along with non-homeschooling families curious if their child is where he or he should be at in the school system.
It goes over everything your child needs to know in the first grade, breaking it up into sections by subject. It not only explains to you what your child should know, but gives you pointers on how you can help your child learn and achieve the first grade goals.
I have nearly every book in this series, for each grade level, and use them all. And for a lot of the concepts, you can really use them at any level, such as the stories and poems. Each subject is broken up into sections/chapters, which I mark with sticky notes sticking out of the top. And even though as time moves on, they are getting older, the first editions are just as wonderful as the second. Like I stated, you can use any of them at any level. You do not have to use this first grade book for a first grader, use it for any child who could benefit from it. So if you feel your child is at...

Donnalyn: I homeschool my daughter and I read the front where it said common core and decided I'd return it(people give common core a bad rap, and i admit i dont have much understanding of what it is). But I decided to look through the book and see what was in it. They are right when they day don't judge a book by its cover cause upon reviewing the chapters and subjects this was a great addition to my homeschool curriculum. The world history, literature, art and music subjects are laid out in a way that I would have never been able to do or even convey to my child in a way that made it fun and exciting. She really lo ok s forward to this book each day of school!
