The Macmillan English Explorers 5 Workbook develops reading comprehension skills, reinforces vocabulary, supports the teaching of phonics and provides opportunities for writing. The Workbooks are perfect for homework or quiet class time and the activities focus on literal understanding, meaning the questions have a clear answer.

Macmillan English Explorers is an exciting reading programme developed specifically for children learning English in kindergarten and primary schools.

This series forms an eight-level reading scheme written specifically for young learners of English. Informed by the National Literacy Strategy and by teaching methodology for first language speakers of English, Macmillan English Explorers are supported by an understanding of the needs of young learners and teachers of English. The scheme, which currently has over 50 readers plus supplementary materials, can be used alongside any primary course.
