Galore Park History/ geography etc books
Can anyone tell me what is the difference between "So You Really Want to Learn" history or geography or maths etc and the Junior History/ geography/ maths etc books? They both say they're aimed at the various year groups for ks2, so I wondered what the difference was ... and which ones I should buy. I'm home educating my DC.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Re: Galore Park History/ geography etc books
Junior History starts at the beginning, and SYRWTL History carries on from where Junior book 3 gets to. I assume the questions get a bit more demanding.
I've not used Junior Geography, but SYRWTL Geography is just straightforward ks3 work.
Haven't used the maths books, but as far as I know, junior follows ks2 and syrwtl follows ks3.
GP generally say SYRWTL starts at y6, but they are assumed at independent schools, and I would say they are y7 national curriculum.
How old are your dc?

Thanks Aliportico. They are 9 and 6. They would be in years 5 and 2.

Actually I've just looked at the geography books and they don't look suitable. Can anyone recommend geography books for KS2?
