A good set of resources but more suitable for KS2 rather than KS3 or even GSCE! Similar to other resource around for KS2. Not challenging enough even for my Yr6s!
Thank you very much, really helpful! Could we have access to edit or could you change 'My Book is called' to 'title' and 'It is by' to 'author'. This is what children are taught in KS1 upwards so that should be consistent right through their education! thank you :)
Great, thank you.
Haven't used this yet but looks very thorough and colorful, can see how it could be used multiple times.
