This resource is enormously helpful; little details make such a difference in terms of being user friendly and particularly in enabling the kids to focus on task. As an example here, the creator has colour coded the LOs and throughout the PPT, any task or note related to the LOs is coloured accordingly. The PPT is really detailed and there is nothing missing - you can use the PPT exactly as it is to form a self-contained lesson plan. No need to produce extra resources to go with it. All tasks are LO focused and linked to the syllabus, and examiner's feedback. The resource was so useful it prompted me to head over to the creator's website and look through his other resources. I contacted him with a question and he got back to me within a couple of hours and was super helpful. I would definitely recommend not only this resource itself but also the creator and his own website. Thanks very much Catherine
