This new series of books will provide practical dip-in activities to support the new 'early learning goals'. The ideas will provide a collection of quick-to-use timed activitieswith supporting photocopiables (to include activity sheets, poems, stories and songs). EARLY READING will include ideas to help children learn to read using an approach that is cross-curricular covering all six areas of learning. Each chapter will use a different area as a focus and develop ideas to extend the children's skills in exploring the world around them. Activities will include: role-playing a grocer's shop (Mathematics), What's the letter Mr Tiger? (Physical Development) and making a sound story (Creative). Each chapter is 10 pages long to provide a total of 60 pages of activities with 12 photocopiable pages.
