Description
"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. The "Non-Fiction" strand is a series of colourful, lively information books. They can be used to teach valuable information retrieval and research skills, and they enable children to learn to read and write a range of different text types. The books can be used with children at different levels of reading ability for shared reading with the teacher, guided reading, or independent reading, and are ideal for use in the Literacy Hour. "Celebration Cookbook" and "Making Party Decorations" give simple instructions for making some delicious recipes and innovative and original decorations for all sorts of occasions.
"A Year of Celebrations" features celebrations round the world for every month of the year. "New Year Around the World" is a reference book, concentrating on the different ways in which people celebrate the beginning of a new year. "Dance" is a report, which focuses on different types of dance the world over. "Fireworks" is a spectacular and fascinating report about the history, uses, and folklore of fireworks. All are beautifully illustrated and full of fascinating facts.
