Growing Complete Set - Complete Set

Each "Early Years Theme Centre" is based on a popular early years theme and contains: a collection of six theme-related stories and information books for children aged three-to five; a 128-page activity book full of practical ideas, with one chapter devoted to each book in the box.

All the activities are based on the "Early Learning Goals" and there are links to the National Literacy and Numeracy Strategies.

There are also collections of photocopiable resources including activity sheets, poems and templates.

The final page provides 'Extra resources' information: two full-colour posters (A2).

At the start of a theme, the practitioner can open the "Early Years Theme Centre" for a ready-made collection of ideas based on the books and activities inside.

The books in the Growing Theme Centre are: "Rosie Plants a Radish"- Kate Petty and Axel Scheffler (Macmillan); "Guess What I'll Be"- Anni Axworthy (Walker); "The Red Woollen Blanket"- Bob Graham (Walker); "What's This?"- Caroline Mockford (Barefoot); "Growing Up Henry"- Pluckrose (Watts); "My Goose Betsy"- Trudie Braun (Walker).
