This is a very useful and great resource to have. The children both in year 2 and year 6 enjoyed using these booklets and produced amazing work based on the activities in the booklets. My class found this resource, easy to use and produced work of a very high standard. They used the booklet, for homework and classwork and remained motivated through out all activities. I would highly recommend these resources.
