Part of the "Storyworlds" series, this is a pack of the four Stage One "Once-Upon-a-Time World" stories. The stories are "The Big Pancake", "The Little Red Hen", "The Lion and the Mouse" and "The Enormous Turnip". Each stage of "Storyworlds" provides a carefully structured introduction of words and language. The different worlds ensure that these are introduced and practised in a variety of contexts. Stage One offers the "see-saw" approach - introducing only 20 key sight words. The left-hand page of every Stage One story consists of adult text to be read by a teacher, reader or an older child. This adult text tells the story, and on the right-hand page there is a repetitive refrain, which the young child reads, and which follows on naturally from the adult text.

Storyworlds Reception/P1 Stage 1, Animal World, Workbook (8 Pack)

Part of the "Storyworlds" series, this pack contains the four "Fantasy World" Stage Two stories, about fantasy characters. The stories are "The Birthday Party", "Monty at the Seaside", "Monty at McBurgers" and "The Ghost Train". Each stage of "Storyworlds" provides a carefully structured introduction of words and language. The different worlds ensure that these are introduced and practised in a variety of contexts. Stage Two offers the "springboard approach" - developing the role of the young child as an independent reader, whilst retaining some support offered by the experienced reader. Twenty-two new key words are introduced. The opening page of each story provides simple text for the teacher or older child to read. The child then reads the rest of the story. The repetitive language allows for the confident development of word-recognition skills.
