Disappointing
I bought the book to revise the English curriculum for Year 1. It is well presented and more appealing from a graphical point of view than other books we have used so far (e.g., CGP). It does have some interesting features, such as the vocabulary section, even though that could have been far more extensive.Overall, I am disappointed in the content and would not recommend it. Too many pages contain far more drawings than useful information, and despite being “gargantuan”, the book does not cover the whole curriculum. I find the maths section quite useless, as this would be covered anyway in an equivalent maths book for Year 1 – this being an English workbook, the pages could have been better used for further English content.I was surprised to see that the digraph “oo” as in “book” is listed as a long vowel sound, in the same way as “oo” as in “moon”. The other sources I have seen so far refer to the two sounds as short and long “oo” sounds, respectively. I am no expert in phonics, so not sure if the book is still correct – if not, quite a bad mistake.
