Functional Skills English Level 1 – Reading Workbook 1
Reading Workbook 1 of 2
A colourful, supportive 68-page workbook created to accompany the SENshine Functional Skills English Level 1 course.
Workbook 1 introduces some of the key skills learners need for the Level 1 Reading assessment using SENshine's clear, visual and manageable approach.
Inside, learners will explore:
purpose and audience
different text types and how to recognise them
layout and organisational clues
persuasive, descriptive, explanatory and instructional language
word choice and its effect on the reader
similes, metaphors, personification and imagery
alliteration, repetition and the rule of three
hyperbole and idioms
direct address and rhetorical questions
bonus support with nouns, adjectives and verbs
how to use a dictionary effectively
original NCFE-style Reading practice
answers and guidance
The activities are designed to help learners read, spot clues and explain what they notice, rather than simply memorising terminology.
This is the first of two SENshine Reading workbooks. Workbook 2 will continue the Reading course and cover the remaining skills needed before learners move on to the Writing section of the programme.
