"Stage 3 Big Books" are large format versions of the new edition "Stage 3" storybooks. With their new, even larger format they are an invaluable resource for whole class teaching and group work. The titles in the pack are "The Egg Hunt", "The Rope Swing", "Nobody Wanted to Play", "By the Stream", "On the Sand", and "A Cat in the Tree". The A4 sized "Teaching Notes" booklet, which is included in the pack, provides a Curriculum Coverage Chart listing Speaking and Listening, Reading, and Writing activities at Reception level. The Teaching Notes include the Extended Story for each title in the pack. These longer version Extended Stories encourage the children to understand the story, absorb the details in the illustrations and predict the text. They are ideal for teachers to encourage children to talk about the story and look closely at the pictures. Each Extended Story is followed by ideas and suggestions for shared activities for speaking and listening, reading, and writing.
