Sequenced well but I don't think it is worth £12 for a very worksheet heavy unit. It needed lots of tweaking and adapting which was tricky as PDF's.

Hi Jason, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We try to include as many resources as we can so that teachers have the option of using them. We understand that our resources can be more difficult to edit; we use PDFs to ensure that everyone can access the resources, no matter what version of software they have. There are several things you can do to adapt the PDFs to better suit the needs of your class, though - I will drop you an email with some further information. I do hope you and your class enjoyed the lessons though.

A great plan but, as with anything, I needed to adapt it a little to make it fit with what we actually needed.
