Smart Kids NZ

These books are perfect for my primary aged students. The nonfiction content and the attractive photos are engaging. I particularly like the vocabulary lists at the back of the books for front loading 'technical vocabulary' before reading. The set on word endings is very useful.

The rulers are effective and secondary students are willing to use them. The cost is high though, so we have to be mindful when giving them out.

The letters are a good size for small group or 1:1 work. They stick well to the whiteboard but are easy enough for children to remove as needed. Includes all the necessary letters including consonant and vowel diagraphs and even has a magnet for final slient e with a space between the vowel and e. Colour coding is helpful for teaching children different types of sounds e.g. vowels, consonants, diagraphs, gentle c and g. Plenty of duplicates of the vowels.

The product manufacturing is great and neat.

Phonics Code books are a great resource for supplementing our structured literacy program.

Fantastic resources. Always prompt service too.

Thank you so much for the fast delivery of the spinners we needed to replace a couple of our grandkids toys by time we placed the order within the next 24 hours they were delivered.
Thank you so much fit well and so far so good

The pack fills our need as an after school Learning/Homework Club to provide meaningful, self-contained and interesting reading activities for children. The product is attractive, and the cards interesting with brief but meaningful questions to follow up. We can vary the difficulty of the task by the degree of independence or support provided for the activity.

Happy to have them on my wall in my classroom

I recommend this set. I decided to purchase my own set once it became clear to me how good the resource really is. Having my own set saves me a lot of time needed to return and get them reissued. :)

The tool arrived so quickly. Would love to have seen it made in wood rather than the synthetic product, however will save on me cutting fruit to explain fractions. Thankyou.

A variety of activities to do relating to the books

Students love reading Hidden in Paris books

Great cards for reinforcing learning about suffixe t rules such as doubling, y to i and more. My students love them. It helps make learning fun.

My students love the smart chute and these cards help reinforce learning about vowel plus r and more.
