Learning Stars
JEANNE PERRETT, JILL LEIGHTON
Learning Stars is a high-level pre-primary course that
provides a solid introduction to communicative English along
with building reading, writing and spelling skills, ensuring
that children have the right capabilities to begin full-time
schooling.
Learning Stars builds a foundation in English and other curriculum subjects, giving children
the best start to primary school. The course has a lively drama and roleplay element to help
young learners practise language in a memorable and fun way, as well as a strong
assessment strand to support teachers as they review and check students’ progress.
• Fun and humorous stories introduce language in an engaging way and the Act It Out
sections allow children to gain confidence in communication.
• Cross-curricular pages in every unit link with a variety of science-based and other early
years’ topics and concepts exposing children to new vocabulary and broadening their
view of the world.
• The phonics programme introduces the Animal Alphabet Flashcards to help children
memorise initial letter sounds quickly and reinforce letter sound recognition with rhyming
stories, songs and chants.
• The animated handwriting tool is a useful presentation aid for modelling correct letter
and number formation.
• The Maths Book links to the topics and themes of the Pupil’s Book and Activity Book,
providing an introduction to and opportunity for practice of a range of early maths
concepts in English.
