Cambridge Reading is a major new reading scheme which provides stimulating books and support materials for the teaching of reading throughout the primary years. Key features include: a coherent yet flexible structure for teaching and learning; a variety of high-quality, attractive picture books; a balance of different text types and genres, including stories, poems and information books; an integrated phonics programme and comprehensive support materials. Cambridge Reading big books provide texts in a size that is big enough for the teacher to give large groups of children a shared experience of the same text and to demonstrate early reading skills and strategies. The Camouflage Big Book is a large-format facsimile of Camouflage. With the help of beautiful colour photographs and spectacular double-page illustrations, the book introduces children to the main types of animal camouflage and explains the advantages that camouflage confers.
The Animal Senses Big Book is part of the Cambridge Reading Range of Genres (non-fiction) strand for Year 1/Primary 2. It is ideal for sharing with groups or to use for whole class shared sessions. It looks at the special ways in which animals use their senses to find out about the world around them. Sections focus upon each sense in turn and the book ends with some intriguing mysteries about animals that seem to have a 'sixth sense'. There are also some games and activities for children to try out to test their own senses! The contents page and index will help children to access particular information about animals that especially interest them. There is also a useful glossary that explains some of the more unfamiliar words and concepts introduced.
Suitable for children in Year 2 (age 6), Animal Communication is one of nine books from the Cambridge Reading non-fiction strand. This strand has been designed to introduce young readers to information retrieval skills. Animal Communication explains why animals need to communicate, and looks at the variety of ways in which they do so. With the aid of beautiful colour photographs, amusing illustrations and a clear, straightforward text, children read about animals that communicate using sound, colour, movement, smell or light. The book's activity boxes encourage children to try out some different forms of communication for themselves. Cambridge Reading at Key Stage 1 (Years 1 and 2) includes fiction, non-fiction, poetry and plays to offer children a variety of text types, authors and illustrators and provide a firm base for wider reading.
