English

Read a short passage together. Ask your child to find evidence for an answer and explain unfamiliar words in context.

Build on it with Plusling

Build on that reading with Plusling’s English questions and explanations, then choose a topic to practise again.

Build on it with Plusling

Give visual reasoning another go in Plusling, with original puzzles and explanations your child can return to.
