Overview

Part of the "Storyworlds" series, this is a pack of four stories for Stage One about children's experiences at home and school. Each story reinforces 20 key words. The left-hand page consists of text to be read by an adult, and the right-hand side has a repetitive refrain for the child to read. Part of the "Storyworlds" series, this is a pack of the four Stage One "Our World" stories about home and school, which aim to provide a relevant and immediate context for children''s reading. The stories are "A Monster for Miss Owen", "The Naughty Hamster", "The Lost Storybook" and "The New Children". 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.
