Adventure Stories for Reading, Learning and Literacy
Mal Leicester and Roger Twelvetrees Adventure Stories for Reading, Learning and Literacy takes a unique approach to cross-curricular teaching in the primary classroom. Providing eight original adventure stories, the authors build up a suite of resources and activities for teachers to use in the classroom, providing cross curricular links in line with the PNS framework, to literacy, science, PE, design and technology, numeracy, geography and history. Though the stories will interest both girls and boys, they take special care to appeal to boys, who are known to achieve less highly than girls in reading and writing, and include themes such as: • cars
• football
• heroic deeds
• space and aliens.
• ghosts and ghouls
• differentiated material for a wide ability range.
Each story is linked explicitly to moral and social values, and can be used to reinforce citizenship, PHSE and SEAL initiatives in primary schools. With photocopiable resources for each story, this book offers instant ideas which can be implemented easily in teacher’s plans and in the classroom and assembly, and will appeal to all busy teachers, NQTs and teachers in training.

Activity-based Learning
Vicki Parfitt, Colin Forster and Andrea McGowan Illustrator: David Brookes Maths Homework for Key Stage 2
Everyone knows the usual homework drill: pupils take a worksheet home, fill it in, and return it to the teacher to be marked and recorded. With the government suggesting that by years 5 and 6 children should get 30 minutes of homework every evening, national tests to prepare for in year 6 and a sea of homework books with nothing but worksheets in them, it’s no wonder that timepressured teachers see their homework options as somewhat limited. The Active Homework series offers teachers an all-round solution to this problem. Rather than being a set of worksheets that pupils have to ’fill in’ and teachers have to ’mark and record’, it’s a suite of activities, aligned to the national curriculum subject and topic areas, that children can do and discuss at home. Their discussions can be with a parent (or anyone else at home). If they want to, parents can comment or feedback to the teacher by using the evaluation slip provided. Teachers can reinforce learning during follow-up discussions in the classroom. The activities will foster active and collaborative learning in pupils, are easy and quick for teachers to manage and, importantly, invite parents or other family members to get involved with the child’s learning.
