Ons vriende, die Flixies, leer hoe belangrik die wisselwerking tussen plante en diere is en hoe plante, soos hulle oor die aarde versprei, ook dien om grond met hulle wortels aan die aarde “vas te plak”.

By blomplante is dit veral voortplanting wat baie slim ontwikkel is en die Flixies is baie beïndruk deur die maniere waarop plante hul saad versprei.

Die Flixie-stories is geskryf en word in die skole gebruik om twee groot krisisse aan te spreek: ’n omgewingskrisis en ’n geletterdheidskrisis. Ons planeet Aarde is in die nood en jong lesers en hul opvoeders moet bewus gemaak word van biodiversiteit en ons almal se verantwoordelikheid om te sorg vir die kwaliteit van lewe op Aarde.

Remove the confusion around phonological awareness and equip children with all the skills needed to conquer the world of words—spelling, reading and writing—with R.I.C.’s must-have new Phonological awareness skills.

This series of five comprehensive books covers all the basics for early childhood children (from four years of age) but also assists older students who are struggling with phonics and spelling. It incorporates skills that fit into any phonics or spelling program. The series emphasises oral language.

Twelve skills are presented in developmental order over the five books and include the following skills:

Book 1: Auditory discrimination, rhyming and alliteration
Book 2: Segmentation and syllabification, and blending
Book 3: Phoneme matching and phoneme isolation
Book 4: Phoneme completion, and phoneme addition and deletion
Book 5: Phoneme segmentation, phoneme substitution and phoneme reversal

The last 7 skills relate to phoneme manipulation.

The skills are presented as fun, hands-on games and activities for whole class, small group and pairs, with full instructions (including the actual words to say if required), all game/activity resources, supporting worksheets if applicable, differentiation suggestions, formative and summative assessments and answers. Literature links and suggested websites for games are also included where applicable.

The activities are predominantly oral activities for four-year-olds but are also appropriate for learners who struggle with letter-symbol correspondence, those beginning to read and older children who need support.

The games and activities are perfect for learning stations and easily managed by adult and parent helpers. They can also be used for early finishers to consolidate skills or to motivate young learners needing extension.

The activities link perfectly to the Early Years Learning Framework and the Phonics and word knowledge section of the Language areas of South African Curriculum English.

Explaining mathematical content and proficiencies. Written by leading mathematical educators, Paul Swan, Linda Marshall and Jack Bana.

Maths handbook for teachers and parents explains in detail the content of the Australian Mathematics Curriculum from Years 3–9 and in some cases beyond. It also includes a brief coverage of the content from early childhood up to Year 2.

The authors, all experienced mathematics educators, give the simplest explanations of how to tackle maths problems, providing background information and clearly-worked examples. If you are not sure of the steps such as those required to teach students how to create and read a graph, complete a calculation or solve an equation in algebra, then this book is for you. There are also substantial sections on geometry, measurement and probability.

The authors have tried to help the reader develop an understanding of the processes behind the mathematics taught and used in school. They have emphasised the use of number sense when performing a calculation and the important processes for solving problems, while at the same time explaining the reasons behind the processes. This book is the perfect companion to the best selling Maths terms and tables.

Kwax gesels met Frikkie Vleipadda wat vir hom sy familiegeskiedenis vertel. Hy vertel vir Kwax dat die oeroue amfibieëvoorvaders groot en lomp was en gesukkel het om op land te beweeg en te lewe.

Hulle gaan dus terug water toe om hulle eiers daar te lê en wanneer die eiers uitbroei, kom daar vissies uit!
