I'm a student and i teach kids maths and english part time so i thought it would be a good idea to get a book and structure to go by when teaching the child. The book is very good and comic, and has different topics to work on from homophones to punctuation to poetry. Each topic has a page with an explanatory story using quirky characters along with a page that has a fun activity or exercise for practise. The page with lots of writing builds confidence in reading and the child I teach loves working from the book as it has different sorts of activities each time. Each topic has a 'tips' box and there's a test at the end of each section so I can see how the child is doing. Although alot of the tasks in the book are simple and easily completed, it's a good basis to set extra work from. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants extra practise for english at home with their child.
