General Comments

I was most impressed at how "kid" and "teacher" friendly they were. To be precise, a lot of workbooks are very wordy and lack sufficient practical work items that provide rigor for the students. Your workbooks have only one or two problems per page that are easy to read, get right to the point, AND challenge the students. I was delighted. They are among the BEST that I have ever seen.

Since we have implemented the usage of the Queue ASK3 and ASK4 Reading, Language Arts, and Math workbooks in our regular and supplemental curriculums, we have seen a dramatic increase in our ASK test results in all areas.

These workbooks reflect and are aligned with the New Jersey Core Content Curriculum Standards and our District initiatives.

Michael Schiavo, Principal, West Orange, New Jersey

We used the books to look at elementary and middle school EOG preparation. We were quite pleased with the content, level of questioning and rigor.

I was pleased with the materials I received. They were clear and concise and matched the areas that we test. I am going to recommend that we purchase some of the books for MCAS prep next year.

Your books are really great. . . . I have been well pleased with the workbooks. I serve on the Curriculum Committee for my school.

Dana, North Carolina

Yes, I was very pleased. The information is great, perfect for review of the SOLs. The [reading comprehension, mathematics, Virginia history, science, vocabulary, editing and revising] content is excellent.

Margie Brinson, fifth-grade teacher, Virginia

The books are all on task and meet Ohio's indicators!! I am trying to talk our boss into purchasing more!!

Kathy, Ohio

The workbooks look great. I am recommending that our school purchase them for next year.

Janice, New Mexico

I am extremely pleased with the workbooks. I think they will be very useful to prepare my students for the MEAs.

Mathematics

Good morning! I am Lester Michaud, Curriculum and Assessment Coordinator for three small school districts in northern Maine. When I returned to my Maine School Administrative District #33 (MSAD 33) office this week, I was pleasantly surprised to find a box containing two of your math workbooks; one for grade 4 and one for grade 7. I reviewed these documents and found them to be of high quality and very pertinent to our work in helping our students increase their achievement levels in math on the Maine Educational Assessment (MEA).

Forwarded the two books to the respective grade-level teachers. This morning I received a response form the grade 7 teacher. She was beyond herself with impressed. I suggested she go to your web site and explore . . . your catalog.

So, I'm just writing to say THANK YOU for thinking of us. I'm pretty sure you'll be hearing from us again in the form of orders for additional resources—and not only in math, but in other content areas as well.

Language Arts

This past January our Board of Education decided to enact a Saturday Test Prep class.  All students in our special education program were invited to attend.  I was asked to teach the Language Arts portion of the class.  I utilized Queue’s NJ ASK 6-7-8 Language Arts Literacy books.  It is with great pleasure that I am writing this to tell you that our students performed wonderfully on our state tests.  Our district met all our AYPs and I had several students whose scores improved 35+ points when compared to the previous year.

Thank you for this wonderful test preparation tool.  I look forward to continuing to use of Queue’s products with all of my students.

The Reading materials were great and grade-appropriate.

The [reading] comprehension [workbook] for high school is very thorough. . . . I am having conversations with the high school literacy folks about how to best use these.

[The Grade 6 MEA Reading] seems very useful and very much like the test it's meant to prepare for.

Science

I received one review copy of Grade 8 Science CMT Prep. The book is very thorough and I am currently sharing it with my Grade 8 teachers.
