The Classroom Kit is a set of guidelines for teachers and parents seeking to use the series as an educational aid. The Kit does not include actual examples, since this would depend on which books are purchased. It does, however, provide the framework that can be used to structure education sessions.
If you require tailor-made examples, please feel free to reach out to us to discuss how this can be achieved.
