Welcome to the Wonderful World of Words (WOW). This 20-part series of books aims to help children learn English grammar in a fun and meaningful way through stories. Children will be able to understand how grammar works through the exciting tales of the characters from WOW Kingdom and Forest. The stories also help children learn vocabulary that is integrated with grammar, so they can use words accurately in sentences and help improve their writing. What's Inside Imaginative stories that engage children, and help develop an interest in learning grammar Adventures that encourage children to learn and understand grammar, and not just memorise rules Games and activities to reinforce learning and check for understanding Volume 13 - The Queen Goes to the Rescue In this volume, children learn about the past tense and its uses in talking about the past. What is particularly important is that the past tense is taught in relation to narratives (stories) which help children improve their use of tenses in writing. Children also learn about the many different ways the past tense is formed, as well as the irregular past tenses.
