Penguin Readers




The other day we were hunting through some of the boxes in my bedroom and came across this... which I had actually bought for Robynne quite a few years ago - when she was still at school - along with another book cassette pack, - which we have yet to find lol - from Poundland, so decided to get Robynne to work through it, just for fun as it is a level 3 and in she should be on the level 6 ones. Amazingly she has almost finished even tho' she finds the book a little creepy - she's not really into Edgar Allen Poe - not sure why, but there you go. But anyway she has enjoyed it, shall hunt out the other one later. So I thought I'd look up online to see if I could find anymore and found the Penguin Readers site....

They have some really lovely books listed, with cassettes or cd's and their not too bad of a price. The free resources are fairly good to, and you don't need to join to access them all. We have had a look at and printed off the fact/worksheet for Memoirs of a Geisha and Robynne has now gone off to the Library to find the book, so that will be her English work for the next week sorted. With a whole list of others for her to work through as and when she wants to. Now if only could get her interested in Maths.

Ok so now the house is quiet for a while shall just play for a little bit....
