Hello, Remember that I wrote about how we can write about any animal if we follow this pattern: 1. It should start with an important fact about the animal. 2. It should tell what the animal looks like. 3. It should tell where the animal lives. 4. It should tell what the animal eats. 5. I t should end with an interesting fact about the animal or the writer's own feelings towards the animal 😊 I used this pattern in my insect worksheets. I provided information about some insects and a spider  🕷️ (a spider is not an insect as it has 8 legs 😊) and I provided worksheets for children to write according to the above-mentioned pattern. I believe that it was good practice for teaching children how to write about any animal be it an insect, a marine animal, or a reptile. If you don't know what I am talking about and are new to my website, please check out my insect worksheets here . However, children will not be able to write about an animal if they don't know anything about it. Th...

Hello friends, I am back with Group 3 Jolly Phonics worksheets. Jolly Phonics is one of the most popular systems of synthetic phonics. Gone are the days when children were taught to read by just going directly from letter names to words. For example, A is for apple, B is for ball, and so on. Now, children are taught the sounds of the alphabet first. They are taught that the letter A makes the sound /a/. This is the first sound that comes from our mouth when we say "ant". Jolly Phonics has divided the English alphabet into seven groups and these groups don't follow the traditional order of A, B, C. The following image shows the seven groups of Jolly Phonics along with an extra group taught by my Phonics app on the Google Play Store. My app called Phonics Fun is 100% Free so you can download it and use it on all your Android devices. It is the perfect way to master phonics as you can hear phonics sounds and also test learning by playing many matching games. So, coming bac...

Hello friends, I have not published anything for a while. I was actually busy managing the social media for my 13 yrs old son who recently published his app on Google Play Store 😊 Now, I am back and I will try to create and publish something unique every week. I covered addition in one set of my preschool worksheets and I think it is high time that I should cover subtraction. Both addition and subtraction are basic math concepts and are taught to children before they start studying multiplication and division. As you know I believe in colorful worksheets so I have tried to make the worksheets as colorful and vibrant as possible. The theme in these worksheets is Autumn ! If you like doing worksheets with your children, then as a parent I would personally recommend purchasing an inktank printer such as  HP Smart -Tank 6001  Wireless Cartridge-Free all in one printer. There are no cartridges just ink bottles and believe me, we have been using the printer constantly for the last ...
