The Basics of Reading... Revised Test-prep Book, Aligned to McRel Standards

We've just finished revising our popular Basics Made Easy: Reading Review book. And guess what?

This book is now up to standards... Content standards published by highly respected education research organization McRel, that is. What does this mean for you? It means this book is closely aligned to state standards very similar to those used by your state. *

Our BME series is meant to provide thorough, general review for middle schoolers and high schoolers, especially those facing impending standardized tests.

Basics Made Easy: Reading Review's new version features two new complete reading practice tests, plus plenty of enhancements to exercises, passages, and explanations throughout. We improved the arrangement of the book's sections, making it easier for your students to use effectively.

(Oh, and we updated all sorts of decade-old references, making everything more timely--your students won't balk at any passages about "compact discs," whatever those are.)

Take a look at sample pages, and request a free preview copy.

* - Of course, we still boast an ever-expanding line of state-specific products.
