Book 57

Cover of The Little Book of Games with Sounds
A good understanding of phonics is essential for reading but work that is too formal, presented too soon, is not helpful to young children. This book contains ideas for phonic activities for the Early Years Foundation Stage, for use both indoors andout. All are planned to help you support children in the development of phonological awareness as they work towards a structured programme. A good companion to The Little Book of Phonics, and of course L is for Sheep.

Cover of The Little Book of Team Games
This Little Book focuses on encouraging emphasis on 'togetherness': a move away from the individual and towards the collective. Children in early years settings are faced with huge challenges regarding socialisation, sharing and growing in responsibility, and this book provides excellent opportunities for them and their carers to address these issues through team play.
