A Picture Book by

 
 
In this cluster, Max and Tiger take a trip to the beach and explore a sandcastle at micro-level in Sandcastle. The children try to keep warm in the snow by building an igloo in The Snow Den. And we meet a grumpy old man who lives in a lighthouse in Mr Grim's Tower. We also take a look at some
amazing buildings around the world and find out all about the new Wembley Stadium in the two non fiction books, Cool Buildings and Building Wembley.

Each book comes with notes for parents that highlight tricky words or concepts in the books, prompt questions and suggest a range of follow-up activities. The Buildings Guided Reading Notes provide step-by-step guided reading support for each book in the Buildings cluster, together with guidance
about comprehension, assessment for learning and vocabulary enrichment. Hands-on follow-up activities and cross-curricular links are also provided for each book.
