Spelling Workout: Level D
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-11-02 Summary: Amazing Spelling Program ... I homeschool and have been through many spelling programs that don't give much practice. This program is a wonderful find that incorporates a reading section with spelling words, practice activities, a written passage to correct (with proofreading marks taught along the way), and a writing prompt. I currently use this for my 3rd grader who is a bit advanced in spelling. She never complains about spelling lessons, and gets 100% on all 20 words each week. I can't praise this series enough! ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-01-21 Summary: Nice spelling book ... This is a traditional spelling book. There is a list of words for the lesson and worksheets to reinforce the spelling rules. There's reviews so that past lessons aren't forgotten. I bought this book because I like the other levels in the series. This books fill the need for spelling. I'm still looking for spelling books that are a little more challenging, but until then I'm happy with Spelling Workout. ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-08-24 Summary: Just Great ... Need to work out at home and have NO EQUIPMENT? This book shows you how to use what you have, from nothing, to dumbbells to barbells. Plenty of visuals to show you how to do each excersize. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-07-14 Summary: Great way to either mix up or supplement your workout ... Great book with illustrations of hundreds of exercises. Furthermore if gives you multiple options and techniques so you aren't doing the same thing over and over again. I was doing P90x and actually memorized some the workouts, however I like this book because on the typical breaks on the video. I can maybe do a another type of move that's not part of the program. Even if you don't have weight equipment it tells you common household items you can use. Good investment. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-03-23 Summary: Finally...A Workout That's Not BORING ... I recently had foot surgery, and I was on crutches for two and a half months. I found out just HOW out of shape I was. I'm a woman, and like a lot of women, I was doing mainly cardio, not strength training. I have to have surgery on my other foot next fall, so I decided I'm NOT going to get my butt kicked like I did this time, because being on crutches is exhausting. But I also didn't want a "typical woman's workout plan." Most of those are, "Lift a three pound weight three times, then go have a Diet Coke." That won't ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-11-18 Summary: Good value ... Pretty complete discussion of the subject, with good, clear info and lots of illustrations. Even as a lifelong lifter (but not a body-builder) I found a lot of new and important info and exercises. It is well worth the small investment. ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | You dont need to muscle your way in to the gym to get a great workout. While recent statistics show that strength training is one of the countrys fastest-growing exercise activities, there is a corresponding rise in dollars spent on home exercise equipment. If a home workout is your style, this encyclopedic volume shows you how to get the results you want no matter what gear you own or what your experience level. Each chapter focuses on different types of equipment (dumbbells, barbells,...more
Spelling Workout (Student Edition) Level F
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-03-07 Summary: Challenging yet educational ... My 6 and 7 year old kids are homeschooled and Spelling Workout is one of their favorite things to do. It incorporates a fun reading section, introduction to the subject and several ways to learn the specifics within each 4 page lesson. It also includes a writing assignment, editing a paragraph, chance to use your spelling words in different ways - not just how to spell them. A great product. We do 2 pages a day. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-07-14 Summary: Good service ... that is very fast service. it was telling me about 2 or 3 weeks time. actually, it just be in my hand less a week. good ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-22 Summary: Great homeschool 6th grade spelling book ... Difficulty level seems to be just about right for my sharp 6th grade daughter. Each chapter has exercises to hammer the words home that are, for the most part, somewhat fun, and not too long. Can easily do 15 min a day of spelling and have one test a week. Perfect! ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-12-09 Summary: I really like this. ... I am homeschooling my daughter through middle school. We are in the middle of 7th grade. I really like this spelling program. It is mainly self-directed and includes vocabulary work. My daughter works through it and learns quickly because of its structure. She also actually likes the lesson lead-in stories! (I emphasize this because she's a discerning reader and at first fussed about reading something so simple.) I find I didn't use my teachers edition at all and bought just the student guide for 7th grade. ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Spelling Workout uses a sports theme to give students the tools they need for success. Capitalizing on the close tie between spelling and phonics, the program leads students from simple sound-letter relationships to more complex spelling patterns. The Teacher's Edition provides detailed lesson plans for either a 3-day or 5-day plan. Also included are tips for meeting the needs of ESL students and Take-It Home masters to help foster home involvement. Student Edition. Grade Six-Level F ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-08-12 Summary: Weight-lifting Bible! ... I absolutely love this book! Its premise is that women should not be afraid to challenge themselves with heavy weights and could benefit tremendously from strength training, and I would definitely have to agree, as I began taking that advice a few months ago with thrice-weekly lifting sessions that have changed my life. The writing style is unpretentious (e.g. "I barely passed high school chemistry, but I will still attempt to explain this"), but still incredibly informative and would be enjoyable to read even if I ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-05-25 Summary: Good book ... Lots of moves, varied routines, great quality photos. Very nice but again nothing new or revolutionary but a nice assortment. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-04-01 Summary: Realistic Strength Training Workouts for Beginner through Advanced ... 101 Workouts for Women is a solid strength training reference guide for any woman interested in obtaining and maintaining a lean, fit body. It won't do the work for you, nor will it give you dietary advice of any kind, but it will give you a well laid out guide to what exercises you should be doing (and how many), how you should be doing them (shown in color photos with fit, but not overly-buff women), and why (for what body parts these exercises are intended). I use this book along with the Strength Training Anatomy ...more
[4] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-03-06 Summary: Gives really good tips ... This book gives really good workout tips. The models are a little distracting because they highlight how you will never look in a million years. Plus they are so made up and hair dolled up, that it takes away from the authenticity of the workouts. But I like how the workouts are good for novices and the advanced, which allows you to grow with the book as you progress. ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-07-27 Summary: my workouts are so much better and more interesting now ... good workouts. you can mix it up quite a bit. the text size is big enough for my aging eyes. you do have to set out to dry, but otherwise, I highly recommend for those trying to get a good workout in on their own. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-04-26 Summary: Awesome Workout Book for Swimmers ... Great book...a little difficult to understand the abbreviations and "language" of the book at first. I recommend taking the time to read the intro and definitions in the book, then taking a look at the workouts to figure out what everything means prior to actually swimming. Tried out the Distance Free 1A swimming yesterday...got quite a workout from that! Can't wait to do the IM workout. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-10-22 Summary: Great Book ... This book is fantastic. The workouts are great and easy to customize to the distance I want to go. I've been using the workout plans and the variety is great. I cannot say enough good things about this book. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-07-15 Summary: An excellent way to spice up your workouts ... I purchased this book to add variety to my current workouts. It does an excellent job. I'm an experienced swimmer (high school and college), so I have no problem with the stroke workouts. Someone just learning how to swim all four strokes might feel differently. For each workout there is an "A" version (typically between 4 and 5 thousand yards) and a "B" version (3 to 4 thousand yards). Virtually all the sets are on rest intervals, not explicit times, so my workout buddy who is a little slower than I am gets to do ...more
Editorial Reviews — ...
