What specific topics or skills will be covered?

 

The topics covered align with those in the KS1 and KS2 curriculum here in the UK, focusing on core subjects like maths, English, and foundational literacy and numeracy skills. We offer resources that support essential skills such as phonics, times tables, grammar, and reading comprehension, as well as introductory concepts in areas like fractions, shapes, and measurements.

 

Our resources aim to foster a true love of learning while helping children retain key information. Rather than memorising facts by rote, children engage with the material through games, creative activities, and hands-on experiences, making learning both enjoyable and memorable.

 

Through this approach, we encourage children to develop active learning habits, allowing them to be curious, involved, and confident with the content. We believe that engaging with topics in this way not only reinforces the skills they’re currently building but also sets them up with a positive, proactive learning style that will benefit them throughout their academic journey and beyond.

For the past 20+ years I have been a firm believer that learning should be an enjoyable experience. I appreciate that traditionally education has revolved around worksheets, textbooks, listening to teachers. But a grounding in early years and working with children who had a variety of learning styles from I learned that it is an individual activity that is personal to all of us. We don’t all learn in the same way. Our influences, our experiences, our capabilities all influence how we retain information. But through it all, I believe that if we can make it enjoyable and engaging, they will want to participate. With participation comes practice which in turn boosts skill and confidence. With an increase in skill and confidence comes a willingness to have a go. This in turn leads to more practice which leads to a positive spiral of success. The moral, we need to make learning fun, engaging, use a range of techniques.
