The Cambridge Number Rhymes Big Book and Cassette pack is part of the Cambridge Reading Language Patterns (Pattern and Rhyme) strand for children in the Foundation stage/Primary 1 (age 4). The colourful big book and cassette (sung by the best-selling Singing Kettle) introduce young children to mathematical and literacy concepts in a lively and fun way. All the Early Learning Goals for communication, language, literacy and mathematical development can be addressed through reading and singing the rhymes in the book and on the cassette. Literacy and mathematics-based activities, together with specific references to the Early Learning Goals, accompany each rhyme. Six of the rhymes are available as children's books, providing valuable extension and consolidation opportunities. Extended teacher notes and a pupil worksheet for each children's book are available to download free from the Cambridge University Press website: uk.cambridge.org/education
