Publisher's Synopsis
The "Oxford Literacy Web" is a literacy programme designed to guide schools successfully through the primary years. It fits 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 scheme aims to guide 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.;In the "Duck Green School" stories, early school experiences are brought to life through a cast of lovable characters. Children can enjoy their own "soap opera" while learning specific vocabulary in context. The Starter Stage is a mixture of wordless books and books with minimal text, introducing the reception class at Duck Green School and their teacher, Mrs Best. The books are available both in standard and "big book" format.
