An unbelievably hilarous middle-grade true story from bestselling author Jordan Sonnenblick. In a typical school year, every kid has one or two things go wrong. But for Jordan, there's A LOT going wrong ALL THE TIME. Take this year. Here are some of the thing going wrong: -- His teacher hates him. Like, really hates him. Like, is totally out to get him even when he's trying to be good, and is willing to fail him on the simplest things, like show and tell. -- He has a slight breathing problem because of his asthma. And breathing is never really an optional activity. -- His pet snake has given birth to way, way, way too many baby snakes, all who need a home. -- He is finding that becoming The World's Best Drummer in no time whatsoever is maybe not the easiest goal. -- There are bullies ready to stomp him when all he has to defend himself with is a lunchbox. And all this doesn't even include the freak swing set accident, the fears inside his head, or the funniest class presentation ever. By keeping his cool (some of the time), banging on the drums (a lot), and keeping his sense of humor (all the time), Jordan's going to try to make it through the year... and grow up to write a book about it!

The Numeracy Book now supports Show and Tell from level 1 with a revised syllabus for level 2 and 3. The Numeracy Book covers the main areas of pre-school math progressively, with inbuilt recycling so learners repeat what they have learned. The syllabus includes: number sense and operations, patterns, functions and algebra, geometry and measurement. Suggestions for when to use the NumeracyBook are referenced at the bottom of the Student Book page, but this is flexible and can be used according to time and needs of the students.

The Activity Book provides further opportunities for practice of the vocabulary and structures presented in the Show and Tell Student Book. Provides carefully scaffolded writing activities and further reading texts so that students can put the language they learn into practice. In every unit there are opportunities for the children to think creatively and build upon what they have learned in the StudentBook, particularly in the story, values and cross-ciricular lessons. Opportunities for personalisation, including short end or unit projects to take home. Enhanced lesson-for-lesson activities provide parents with step-by-step instructions to better support their child with their homework.
