Question about a "literacy skill builder"?

Question:http://phcatalog.pearson.com/program_mul...

Is this supposed to be used during 6th, 7th, and 8th grade grammar? Or when are you supposed to use it?

Answers:
Any skill builder is to be used only when the child has sufficient practice/mastery in that area to move on.

You can use specific skill builders to re-enforce concepts that need extra practice, but I would not get hung up on grade levels.

If you use a book simply because of "grade level", the child may not grasp the material if he/she did not learn the previous concepts adequately.
On the other hand if he/she is further along it would be a waste of time, and you may need to use a higher level of skill builder..
Yes, it's a 6th/7th/8th grade "bridge" curriculum. It's used both in pull-out tutoring classes (after school or free-period type situations) and during the summer to help students retain their skills so they don't have to go through the month-long review at the beginning of the next school year.
