What is this book?

It is the first workbook in the Pakistan edition of the Cambridge Primary English series. A workbook is where a young child practises what they learn in class: tracing, writing, matching, reading short texts and answering simple questions. The Pakistan edition is based on the Single National Curriculum 2020 and uses topics that make sense for Pakistani children, such as familiar places and local weather.

The nine units run from "Places we know" to "All kinds of weather", and they move through talking about places, telling news, rhymes, stories that children join in with, instructions, a second rhyme unit, surprising facts and finding out. The unit titles are cheerful and child-friendly, which helps the youngest learners feel at home.

Contents of Workbook 1 (with page numbers)

What children practise, in plain words

The unit titles show the kinds of activity the book offers, though your school's teacher decides how each page is used.

• Places we know (page 6). Talking and writing about places that children see every day.
• Let me tell you! (page 26). Telling things to others, which builds speaking and early writing.
• Rhythm and rhyme (page 52) and Rhyme time (page 110). Two units about the sounds of language. Rhymes help children hear the parts of words, which is a good basis for reading and spelling.
• Joining-in stories (page 63). Stories in which the child can say or repeat a pattern, a favourite activity for this age.
• Do it like this! (page 87). Following and giving simple instructions.
• You'll never believe it! (page 122). Surprising, fun facts and short texts.
• Finding out (page 152). Looking for information, an early step towards non-fiction reading.
• All kinds of weather (page 176). Words and sentences about the weather, a topic children love.

Who should buy this book?

• Parents of Class 1 children whose schools use the Pakistan edition of Cambridge Primary English and name Workbook 1.
• Families on the LACAS Class 1 list, where this book is listed. Please check your list for the exact title.
• Teachers who want practice pages to go with the Learner's Book.
• Tutors who help young children with early reading and writing.

Why a workbook for Class 1?

At this age, children learn through doing. A workbook provides pages that fit what a five- or six-year-old can do in a short time: a few lines to write, a picture to match, a rhyme to complete. It also gives parents something concrete to look at, so they can see what their child is learning from week to week.

When is it used?

Schools usually work through the units in order, a few pages at a time, together with the main lessons. The units span the whole year, with the first unit (page 6) at the start and the last (page 176) near the end.

How to help your child with it

• Read the unit title aloud together before starting the pages.
• Sing and clap the rhymes in the rhythm units. Children remember better when they use their bodies.
• Let your child say a sentence aloud before they write it.
• Praise effort and neat letters, not only the right answers.
