The Workbook Advantage

Kids love color, characters, and “room” to play. School Zone workbooks deliver all that and so much more. More than 40 years ago the company responded to parents’ need for materials to help reinforce in-school learning. The first few workbooks sold out in six months, and the energy and momentum continue.

Research continues to show that writing by hand fires up specific areas of the brain, and School Zone continues to design and offer workbooks with just the right blend of fun and challenge, across a wide range of needs. For example, sticker workbooks are more than just fun; stickers serve as manipulatives that build fine motor skills, hand and finger strength, and agility to help with everyday tasks. Big 128-page workbooks such as Big Reading for grades 1-2, Big Spelling for grades 1-3, Big Science for grades 2-3, and other grade-specific “big” workbooks that cross the curriculum, are packed with hours and hours of playful, creative activities that build skills and confidence.

Children love the workbooks’ bright colors and big variety. Parents appreciate their flexibility. Lives today are hectic. Many of our workbooks are take-anywhere size, and the larger ones (64-page+) have perforated pages ideal for using as individual worksheets. The workbooks have simple directions so kids can do most concepts themselves, yet also offer an ideal opportunity for parent-child interaction.

Page by page, workbooks deliver hours and hours of skill practice.
