What is Enter-Great English?
Enter-Great English is an intervention programme that functions as a bridging tool, to ensure a smooth transition from the junior primary phase to the senior primary phase. The programme integrates and revises the various reading, spelling, comprehension and language skills that are required to achieve excellence in mastering the English language at this particular stage of development.
The Perfect Bridging Tool
About the Author
Welcome to my passion project!
My name is Kim Masson, and I have been teaching primary school children for more than 20 years. I began my teaching career in the junior phase of primary education, where I quickly recognised the fundamental importance of developing strong reading and comprehension skills. Reading, spelling and comprehension are deeply interconnected, and I have always believed that these skills are most effectively developed when they are taught together rather than in isolation. This philosophy is at the heart of Enter-Great (Integrate) English.
I completed a four-year professional teaching degree, followed by an Advanced Certificate in Learning Difficulties. I spent six years teaching in the government school sector before moving into private education. Throughout my career, one question has been consistently asked by parents:
“Is there some additional English practice or activity I can use at home to help my child improve their reading, spelling and comprehension?”
This recurring question became the inspiration behind Enter-Great (Integrate) English — an integrated English programme specifically designed to support children aged 8–11 years, corresponding to Grades 3–5.
The programme has been developed from both my professional teaching experience and my understanding of the challenges children can face when developing foundational literacy skills. My aim is to provide children with meaningful, structured and engaging opportunities to strengthen their English skills while giving parents a practical resource to support learning at home.
