Review: Great for MTEL teacher prep test - What your 5th/6th grader needs to know books helped me pass my MTEL (MA teacher's elementary general curriculum test) on the first try. I had graduated college 20 years prior to taking the mtels so these books are good refreshers. It doesn't go into deep details however it was easy enough to google any subject mentioned in the book to expand my knowlege. Many of the answers to test questions are found in these books. Also, if you are getting these books as an mtel prep then also get a $39 (or so, no need for the more expensive ones) mtel gen curriculum study guide which supplements these books and sometimes gives me details. For example, the 5th grade book mentions tensions leading up to the Civil War but doesn't mention the Nebraska Kentucky Act but the guide does...the mtels includes obsure knowledge to all extra info is needed. To pass MTELs you need a thorough understanding of the topic objectives and be apply your knowlege to answer the questions so the more guides the better.
Review: A Guide on the Side - This comprehensive book is well-written across all content areas. Most fifth-graders I know are exposed to a little of this book's content. It is a great guide, but always consult your district's standards and use this book as supplemental material.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Guide on the Side
*by A***R on July 26, 2023*

This comprehensive book is well-written across all content areas. Most fifth-graders I know are exposed to a little of this book's content. It is a great guide, but always consult your district's standards and use this book as supplemental material.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must have addition
*by E***E on September 24, 2013*

While this is not to be used as a full curriculum or should it be considered "everything you have to teach your child this year". It is an excellent tool for either home schooling or extra learning for a traditionally schooled child. The lessons are brief and to the point. It is set up to be discussed with or read with your child but you can also assign your child to read a few lessons/pages himself. It covers everything from poetry to various history and geography, to art and music, math and science. All in short "lessons" that can be read or discussed in few minutes. As a new homeschool family I use this for a basis to create units and spelling words. I also assign my 5th grader passages to read out loud to me while I am making lunch or putting away laundry.
