McFadden Language Series/Google Books


There are no grades assigned to these books; however they appear to be appropriate for third and fourth grade. They have some really nice writing lessons, some with illustrated picture prompts for creative writing. I plan to use a few of these pages for writing assignments for by fourth grade student this summer.
