Reviews
I'm very pleased with the Bloomsbury Curriculum Basics range and would highly recommend them to home school parents and new teachers too. There's a wealth of knowledge to be gained from them as well as lesson plans to guide you through each lesson ensuring you meet the criteria. In my mind, they are a great investment as they'll see you through all 6 years of Primary education. * Nazira, lovehijabgirl.blogspot.co.uk *
