FAQs

Q1. Is this pack suitable for learners with dyslexia?

Yes — the pack is published by Barrington Stoke, a specialist in accessible‑reading formats, and designed for readers who need extra support. While it is specifically for English learners (EAL), its accessible format makes it a strong choice for children with reading differences too.

Q2. What level is CEFR A1?

CEFR A1 is the most basic proficiency level in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages — learners at this level are starting to understand and use familiar everyday expressions and very basic phrases. This pack is tailored for that starting point.

Q3. What age is this pack aimed at?

The interest age is listed as 5+ (young learners of English). The reading age is “mixed” indicating accessible texts for early readers or learners of any age beginning English.

Q4. Can the pack be used in school settings for EAL groups?

Absolutely. It is designed for EAL students, so it is highly suitable for classroom EAL sections, pull‑out groups, induction years, reading‑for‑pleasure libraries or home reading for learners whose first language is not English.

Q5. Are the books in the pack themed in a particular way or sequenced?

The pack brings together five individual titles all graded at A1. They are not listed as a series in sequence — learners can choose according to interest. The focus is on accessible format and engaging content rather than strict ordering.
