Big Books are perfect for large classes. These allow you to read the story and talk about the pictures with the class. This demonstration of reading helps learners to relate the text to the pictures. Reading together as a class or group provides support for less confident pupils who will join in as much or as little as they can. These are slightly longer than stories at Stage 2 and have longer sentences on each page. It is vitally important to keep talking and asking questions about the story to increase the children's understanding and vocabulary. The children's own language can still be used as necessary. This pack contains: On the Sand / The Egg Hunt / Nobody Wanted to Play / A Cat in the Tree / The Rope Swing / By the Stream. Each book contains 16 pages.
