WHAT’S NEW

THE YEAR OF THE DRAGON

2024 is the Year of the Dragon in the Chinese zodiac. We have a whole calendar of dragon-related events and resources throughout the year.

Our massively popular Decoding Dragon (5000+ downloads on TPT)  will be joined by two sisters this year.

Firstly, we’re releasing a vocabulary-building 4-Step Process on dragons, with supplementary non-fiction, knowledge-building units of study on Komodo dragons and the Chinese zodiac.

Secondly, leading up to the release of the new edition of Language for Life, the dragon who ate the marshmallow teacher will be showing students how to diagram sentences and get really good with syntax.

Sign up for our newsletter or check our socials for more announcements as the year progresses.

Happy New Year, everyone!
