    Customer Review
    If you are using this for educational purposes, you need to go to the parent options portion of the software. I had my son and daughter take the assessment test. You can see how they do on the leveling section. Then if you go to the Report card, you can select what you want your child to work on. There are LOTS of options to pick from, sentence building, syllables, parts of speech, addition, subtraction, money, earth science, and on. I could really zone in on what my son was not good at, parts of speech, (identifing noun, verb, adjective) and sentence building. He kept scoring low on money also, but he would say it was easy. I watched him and realized he wasn't picking the largest coins first. Once he did that his score improved. I think the software is a great tool, BUT the parents have to spend a little time each day selecting which section of the software you want your child to do. Otherwise, they are just playing random games. But, picking out the sections only takes less than 1 minute. I am buying 2nd grade reading softwre today!
