Synopsis

In The Thing in the Cupboard and Message in an X-bot, Tiger is scared when he meets a strange little robot in the dark, but the mystery thickens when Max and Ant fix the Thing and it plays them a holographic message - find out more in this two part adventure. Also in this cluster find out how
one young boy catches a deadly snake in The Deadly Boomslang. And find out more about how television works and how animals communicate in the two non fiction books, What's on the Box? and Let's Play and Other Things Animals Say.

Each book comes with notes for parents that highlight tricky words or concepts in the books, prompt questions and suggest a range of follow-up activities. The Communication Guided Reading Notes provide step-by-step guided reading support for each book in the Communication cluster, together with
guidance about comprehension, assessment for learning and vocabulary enrichment. Hands-on follow-up activities and cross-curricular links are also provided for each book.
