An easy-to-use filtering system allows teachers to search for relevant resources quickly and easily and there is also a comprehensive glossary of grammatical terms that includes and expands on all the terms contained in the National Curriculum glossary.
All the teaching resources can be projected onto an interactive whiteboard and include games and hands-on elements to make learning English grammar fun and engaging. The dynamic resources constantly refresh with new examples allowing pupils to practise new skills as many times as they need to.
