A colourful Key Stage 1 English workbook, ideal for use in class or at home
This series of workbooks has been written to give children essential practice in the key skills at Key Stage 1. There are five workbooks in the complete series, aimed at children aged from 5 to 7 years, and each book is designed to consolidate key skills and to support work at school.
Each page contains challenging activities to inspire children, with clear explanations and practice questions for different abilities. The content matches the Key Objectives from the National Numeracy Strategy, the Phonics strand of the National Literacy Strategy and the QCA Scheme of Work for Science.
In the middle of each book are notes for parents and carers, in pull-out format. These have been written by practising Key Stage 1 teachers, and help parents to support their children in the vital infant years. Each book also includes a page of gold star stickers to help build children's confidence.
