Further themes will be added.

Learners can join the class at any point. This is an ongoing course so each class stands alone.  We focus on a different theme from the books each week whilst developing comprehension skills, grammar, vocabulary, reading and writing. Learners can join the class no matter how much of the series they have read.

Each week will include a range of teaching activities including reading out loud, videos, discussions, activity sheets, Q+A, slides and more. Learners will be encouraged to share their ideas in a variety of ways throughout each class. 

Please do contact us with any questions. We look forward to being part of your learning journey!
