Publisher's Synopsis
The "Oxford Literacy Web" is an exciting new literacy programme designed to guide schools successfully through the primary years. Fitting the requirements of the National Literacy Strategy, National Curriculum in England and Wales, English Language 5-14 in Scotland, and Common Curriculum in Northern Ireland, the "Oxford Literacy Web" guides pupils through the core skills associated with learning to read and write with a diverse range of literary styles within the genres of fiction, non-fiction, rhymes, language, and poetry. "Launch into Literacy" is a course to inspire the highest reading and writing skills in today's children. A new language programme specially written for NLS and other curriculum requirements, "Launch into Literacy" is a structured five-book course (Foundation Book and Books 1-4) for 6-11 year olds, Y2/P3 to Y6/P7. It presents a wide range of texts for children to study as models for their own writing at text, sentence, and word level. The write on/wipe off posters provide a large version of the texts. The teacher can annotate them during shared reading sessions, while discussing genre and analysing content, structure, and language features.
