Mêts Maesllan: De Korea

Do you know where South Korea is? What is the capital of South Korea, what colours are on its flag, and what sports do they enjoy playing? Read this book to learn several interesting facts about the country and learn more about the country’s traditions with Mim and her family. Why not recreate the flag of South Korea? Can you remember what the different lines on the flag mean?

This is a series of books to support learners on Progression Steps 2, 3 and 4 that have specific learning difficulties in mastering literacy in Welsh. The series centres on phonetic and linguistic patterns based on 'O Gam i Gam' (Griffith, updated by Thomas and Jones, 2009) and 'Ffynhonell Eirfaol' (Hughes, 1978).

The Mêts Maesllan series follows the adventures and interests of a lively group of 10 and 11 year old friends– Mim, Ben, Sam and Wil (and Bob the dog) who live in Maesllan. The series includes a pack of 32 cross-curricular books, some of which are fictional, others factual, and some in the form of rhyme.

The books are relatively short and are designed to attract the interest of children who are usually reluctant to read. There's activities on Hwb to coincide with the series, including digital and paper activities made to support and reinforce the vocabulary and language patterns presented in the books.
