CLOSED: Learning Workroom Educational Software Review and Giveaway

I don't know about you, but I am always looking for ways to facilitate lessons learned in the classroom. I'm especially interested in finding ways to keep my kids sharp over breaks. Christmas break, Spring Break and Summer Vacation are all times when I see my kids losing some of what they have learned. I am well aware that getting your kids to practice the skills they have learned helps keep them from losing comprehension and skills.

When I heard about the Steps to Success software from  Learning Workroom, I was intrigued. I see it as a software that would be a great addition to homeschool curriculum as well as a supplement for kids in school and/or on break. The software is designed to make learning fun and to help children succeed in school and on state tests.

Software Available:
Math - Gr. 3-4
Math Gr. 5-6
Science Gr. 3-5
English Language Arts Gr.3-6
You can purchase the software here.


The Science CD was awarded a 2010 Media of the Year Award from Creative Child Magazine. The software provides an easy way for parents to help their children achieve academic success.

The software is a PowerPoint presentation that your child can click through. I like how it has facts plus matching exercises, word scrambles and questions in a quiz format. I got the Mathmatics for Grades 3-4 for Nathan. He's in this grade range and I thought he'd enjoy it. There were parts he had a great time with, but I never thought about how much he loves math. He's advanced enough in some areas that he would have prefered the CD for Grade 5-6 for those things. So Nathan told me some of the stuff was a bit old news, but he really liked the rest.

Nathan and I also like the downloadable worksheets found on the site. Our favorite is the Number Sense Word Search. I also liked the multiplication charts as we started working on multiplication facts. I signed up for the FREE Worksheets from Learning Workroom.
