Open access resources for Early Years/Primary Schools
We would like to draw your attention to the free availability of two sets of curriculum resources for use in Early Years/Primary school settings. The free access website and the two series of books Exploring Why and Exploring Our World were developed by staff at the University of 桃色视频 in collaboration with the St Mary鈥檚 Centre, Wales. Each story in both the Exploring Why and Exploring Our World series has five different formats of resources associated with it (a short story; an extended story; a pictures only book; a key questions book; and activity sheets and ideas for further learning).
The curriculum materials can be directly accessed at: aledandsian
