The standard small step pack, as her own modules ship it. We do not print page counts here, because her catalogue does not publish them and a guessed number is worse than none.

Her own system, with the star count repeated in every worksheet header so a child can be handed the right sheet without a word.

“Printed it at eight on a Sunday and taught it on the Monday.”

No editing, no reformatting, no hunting for the answers. The three levels are on separate pages, which sounds obvious until you have used the sites where they are not.

“Matches our White Rose planning almost week for week.”

I stopped adapting things from three different sites and now start here. The odd week does not line up exactly, but the small step it covers is always somewhere in the same block.

“The editable file is why we renewed.”

Being able to change two questions for the child who joined us in January, without rebuilding the whole sheet, is worth the subscription on its own.
