The Letterland system teaches all 44 English speech sounds and their main spellings through engaging stories, rather than boring rules. These stories really come into their own for explaining sounds that are spelt with two letters (digraphs) instead of one. This book contains 40 of them! They will help your child to confidently tackle and enjoy many hundreds of words. The combination of memorable characters and sound educational principles makes Letterland the ideal way to introduce your child to letter sounds or provide extra phonics practice at home.

This activity book is for children progressing from printing letters to pre-cursive letter writing. It also features pre-writing activities, letter formation practice and combining letters to form whole words and sentences.

This book is more than a book. Inside you'll find pre-cut pieces to pop out and slot together (following the simple instructions) to make five sturdy model sea creatures. Underneath each set of pieces you'll find a bonus fact file with extra information about the featured sea creature. Slotting together the models helps with logic, following instructions and fine motor skills. Includes: dolphin, shark, turtle, octopus, walrus.
