Book |

Five packs
are available in the Big Book format. These allow you
to read the story and talk about the pictures with the
class. This demonstration of reading helps learners
to relate the text to the pictures. Reading together
as a class or group provides support for less confident
pupils who will join in as much or as little as they
can. The children should be encouraged to talk about
the story either in English or in their own language
to improve their understanding of the reading process
and the story itself. It is also the perfect opportunity
to assess their current vocabulary and teach new words.
Available titles are Stage 1 Kipper Stories, Stage
1 First Words, Stage 1+ First Sentences, Stage 2 Stories,
and Stage 3 Stories. |
