October 2026
Everything that arrived this month, in one place — so you can look back over it whenever you like.
New this month 5
- Flashcards — animalsThe fifth set: chicken, donkey, cow, sheep, goat, tiger, zebra, hippo, polar bear, crocodile, snake, frog, spider, lizard, jellyfish. Fifteen animals across two sheets, every picture an emoji.
- Flashcards — homes, places and roomsThe sixth set: house, flat, apartment, countryside, village, town, city, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, living room, dining room. Flat and apartment are the same picture on purpose; the five rooms are the same room five times.
- Flashcards — classroom things, two past verbs, one feelingThe seventh set: music, board, map, rubber, page, tick, pointed, talked, happy. Nine cards and three to write yourself. The two -ed verbs are a pair on purpose — pointed gains a syllable and talked does not.
- Flashcards — outside, out and about, a creature and a colourThe eighth set: sky, moon, grass, roof, bicycle, skateboard, seat, backpack, sunglasses, game, alien, silver. Twelve words, twelve cards, no blanks. roof, grass and alien are already cards on flashcards-03 and -04, and are drawn the same way here on purpose.
- Flashcards — free time: activities, things, hobbiesThe ninth set: hockey, ice skating, skating, swimming, dancing, playing table tennis, playing table football, comics, magazines, DVDs, computer games, laptop, radio, reading, drawing, listening to music, watching films, taking photos. Eighteen words over two sheets, plus six to write yourself. Its stripe is HALF width — the nine colours are all spent, so this set tells itself apart by stripe length instead, and within it the colour is the group. ice skating and skating are the pair to teach together: same boot, blade or wheels.

These questions got a page of their own, because they are the sort that are easier with a picture than with words.
