This new series of books provides ready-made collections of earlyyears stories, songs, rhymes and information text all based around popular themes. The books are more than just anthologies, however, as each poem, story or rhyme is photocopiable and is accompanied by activity ideas showing how it can be used as a springboard for activities across the curriculum. All the ideas are carefully linked to the requirements of the new Early Learning Goals. The books also include photocopiable templates and activity sheets. The material in the books is all new.
