'An excellent resource. Enhanced learning is achieved by the easy-to-read explanation of each element; giving valuable examples and encouraging expansion of those facts.'
- J Churchill, English Language Teacher, Independent Reviewer

'I particularly liked the investigative element of the activities in this resource. Students are required to think, find out, share previous learning and use previous knowledge to facilitate new learning. Perfect.'
