Butterflies on flowers, a hat on your head, the light is on. Eight lessons on the little word that tells you exactly where something is.
Butterflies sit on flowers. A hat goes on your head. The light is on. “On” is a word children already use a hundred times a day — this course simply teaches them to see it on the page and read it with confidence.

- Recognise “on” instantly and tell it apart from “no”
- Use “on” to say where something is
- Read picture sentences: The butterfly is on the flower.

- Write “on” and use it in two sentences of your own
