Bug Club Independent is one of the most popular schemes in schools today and has taken the emphasis on reading for pleasure to its heart. Expertly written with step-by-step progression in a bright, engaging package — meaning children will want to read their book at home. The Purple band books feature more complex stories, characters, vocabulary and sentence structure. Readers will love the character-led books including Young Robin Hood and Sharma Family. The inside cover notes for parents, carers and teaching assistants are probably the most fun and vibrant we have seen so it is no wonder children are enjoying them. Bug Notes clearly show children what they will be practising with a list of interesting words (e.g. favourite, poisonous, enormous, definitely and towels). Top Tips encourage children and parents to practise skills – such as ‘take time to relate the events of the story to your own experiences’ or ‘talk about the types of stories they prefer’. Story Detectives is a good way of focusing children on a character or event in the story which, in turn, helps with comprehension. A signpost directs children to the back cover and Bug Time where fun is foremost and children are given entertaining challenges that encourage them to go back over the book, as well as an extension activity (Draw it, Make it, Try it etc.) or Memory Mangle encourages children to recall information after reading. The extra notes on the inside and back covers will appeal to readers.
