As a teacher of high school students with learning disabilities I found the Jamestown literature books to be excellent. The students were willing to read the stories successfully and do the exercises successfully. I highly recommend this series.

Breakthroughs in Critical Reading Skills Review

Breakthroughs in Critical Reading Skills
Average Reviews:

I find this book fantastic. It will help students learn how to read passages, charts, cartoons or ads. It has five chapters and on page 1 to 11 there is a pre-test. The test will show students on what chapter they should focus. Besides, there is a post-test at the last part of this book. Students can evaluate their work and will know what to review. "Main Idea and Details","Summarizing and Paraphrasing","Making Inferences" or "Predicting" are included in some chapters. By using this textbook, students will acquire critical reading and thinking skills. I am going to use this book as a textbook for my English class.
