Live the lotto dream is a fabulous project that covers many E3/L1 literacy and numeracy elements. You win the lottery, buy a flat and have to furnish it from the Argos catalogue!

Everything must be written up as a comprehensive report with a clear conclusion (a great guidance page on report writing is included in the resource).
