Teacher notes

  • Children colour the picture, trace over the outline letters, then write the word and the sentence on the guide lines.
  • Prints cleanly in black and white with very little ink: there are no solid fills.
  • Sentence to copy: 'I like a red apple.'. Read it aloud together before writing.
  • Vocabulary link: ask children to say three things about the picture before they colour.
