Zoggy In The Lion Pen - Teacher Notes (Writing And Comprehension Practice)

The 'Writing and Comprehension Practice: Zoggy In The Lion Pen' is an educational resource designed for children aged 4 to 8 years to enhance their phonic writing and comprehension skills. This workbook is intended to be used in conjunction with the phonic reading book 'Zoggy In The Lion Pen', which is part of the green level in the 'Mission Spelling Zero' scheme. The workbook offers a variety of follow-up activities that reinforce the phonic sound work introduced in the main book. These activities include reinforcing letter sounds, tracing and writing letters and words, spellings to learn, and a simple comprehension exercise based on the story of Zoggy.

'Mission Spelling Zero' is an innovative structured course that aims to assist young learners in taking their initial steps in reading and spelling. The scheme comprises a series of books across seven levels, each represented by a different colour of the rainbow, to guide children through their early literacy development. The series introduces a new character—an alien with exceptional computer skills—who will engage children in learning about initial sounds, double consonant blends, and vowel digraphs. As children progress through the levels, their phonic skills become key tools for accelerating their future learning. In addition to reading, the 'Mission Spelling Zero' scheme includes a series of writing booklets for handwriting practice, writing simple sentences, and playing educational games to consolidate their learning. This comprehensive approach to reading and spelling is presented over 24 pages of engaging content.
