I got this for my 5-year-old who is in Reception Year. It's mostly too advanced for her; it is aimed a higher age group after all so it'd be wrong if it wasn't. There is some stuff she could do but the rest we'll wait until later to teach her. The topics in the book are:
- Phonics
- Air and ear sounds
- Plurals
- Sentences
- Prefixes and suffixes
- Tongue twisters and riddles
- Compound words
- Adjectives
- Questions
- Punctuation
- Words that are the same and opposities
- Joining sentences
- Poems
- Non-fiction and fiction
- Finding facts
- Checking over your work
The book has an answers section which can be pulled out of the centre so the answers can be checked. This will be useful for parents to check their child's work, but do take it out before you give the book to your child in case they are tempted to cheat.
Overall then: a useful aid to your child's learning if they are 6-7, but to be used in conjunction with other teaching.
(I got this book through Amazon Vine. It is listed on Amazon here.)
