Each book in the Spinnakers series contains a thematically linked collection of texts with accompanying exercises and activities balanced across the six modes of listening, speaking, reading, writing, viewing and presenting.
The themes chosen reflect a typical selection for many schools and they offer rich opportunities for broader and deeper enquiries across a variety of learning areas for a cross-curricular approach.

The series is written at a high level 3 and low level 4 of the New Zealand Curriculum, with accessible language and opportunities for students to succeed at a variety of levels.

Kaleidoscope of Life focuses on diversity - in nature, the community, school and everyday life. Using a variety of text types and media, including fiction, non-fiction and visual imagery, students will develop their language and analytical skills and learn about the importance of celebrating diversity in people and in the world around them.
