Project X: Brown Band: Fast and Furious Cluster: Pack of 5

by Anthony McGowan, Chris Powling, Alex Lane

When Tiger's micro-watch gets stolen, the children have to go on an exciting, action-packed chase to get it back in The Chase. Also in this cluster, join Ant as he does some micro-training for a charity race in The Fun Run. Then make sure you catch your breath before reading about Ben's
homemade skateboard in The Super Skateplank. Also, find out more about racing driver Lewis Hamilton and take a look at the world of speed - fast cars, trains, boats, planes and humans - in the two non fiction books, Max Meets Lewis Hamilton and Top Speed.

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 Fast and Furious Guided Reading Notes provide step-by-step guided reading support for each book in the Fast and Furious 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.
