2. Bright Beginnings - this is a workbook developed by Rabbi Yakov Horowitz. definitely worth taking a look.

The Bright Beginnings Workbook was developed over a thirteen year period in Yeshiva Darchei Noam of Monsey and is designed for classroom use at the grade level when children are first introduced to chumash. In addition to its use in a school setting, this can also be utilized at home should parents wish to enrich the Hebrew skills of their children. We have also found it to be an effective tool for adults who have a limited background in Judaic studies, and even for yeshiva graduates who were taught chumash by rote in their childhood.
