The third in the series and just as amazing!
This resource comes with a great booklet that will allow home schoolers to use the resource to its full potential. It came be used in a variety of ways, is sturdy, easy for children to manipulate, which will also help with fine motor skills. Once children know their sounds, digraphs and vowel blends, this resource can be used for building more complex words, we are moving to adjectives etc. It will help build their vocabulary for writing tasks. It supports Kineasthetic learners, ie children who learn by doing things. Vital in all classrooms. AN INVALUABLE RESOURCE FOR ANY SETTING, HOME OR SCHOOL! I have added pics of the items, front and back of the box, of the instruction leaflet and of the items. I have also added a video and pics of this one, the THIRD in the series of three, and off the other three as they all lead on from each other with an APPROPRIATE UPLIFT in learning. This one being the most complex of the three! Age appropriate, bright children will start learning these from 7+, but some might still be using them at 8. VERY HAPPY TO RECOMMEND ALL OF THEM, INCLUDING THIS ONE.

Comes with QR codes to print off additional games
At first glance this just looks educational rods which are set in certain colours for learning. Such as the silent (E) being being white, vowels being red and so on. This set is a great way to introduce the more complex wording and practising of Constance files, word families and Affixes so a child starts to learn and use and understand suffixes. It’s very round nine, if a child learns by a hands-on approach, they are more able to retain information and learn quicker. This also includes a booklet with invert colour is QR codes to be able to download games to use alongside this at set such as Bingo as you can see in the photo. There are lots of different activities and games to choose from with the QR code to download and print off. This app can also be used in addition to assets within this range which can be bought separately. Make a note a perfect set for a home setting or an education setting. We’ve had fun playing the games, both learning, and my eight-year-old son has enjoyed this set whilst boosting his knowledge. Therefore, I’d highly recommend

Really good set
I think these are a great learning resource. The blocks are a good size and a lot of thought has been put into the design and contents of the set. The blocks are coloured based on the function of the letters (e.g. vowels are red, consonants are blue, silent 'e' is white), this is good as kids aren't just learning to repeat words they are learning what makes a word, so it helps take their language skills to the next level. I think this is a good set for use at home, to supplement schoolwork or can even be used by teachers in a school. The activity book is also good, and filled with lots of useful information for adults about how best they can use the set. It's a great way to make learning fun and engaging. Kids enjoy it and its something you can spend a 10 - 20 minutes on in an evening, so it doesn't need a lot of time to get into.
