There are a wide range of project modules to choose from. These are linked to National Curriculum requirements, and are aimed at mixed ability groups within Key Stages 1 and 2. A typical box contains 20 items including non fiction, fiction and poetry books as appropriate. Poster packs, photocopiable resources and other items are included subject to availability.

Author Boxes - Key Stage 1 and 2

Teachers can also request a selection of books by an individual author. This enables them to increase their use of fiction in the classroom and introduce children to a range of authors as they progress through school. Quality children's authors are represented at both Key Stages.

Poetry

Poetry boxes are linked to Key Stages 1 and 2 of the National Curriculum. Teacher boxes contain books from a variety of poets, themes and cultures.

Traditional Tales

Boxes will consist of a selection of traditional tales which include the original version and more recent re-tellings.
