Understanding Traditional Stories

This resource book offers a diverse collection of fairy tales, fables, and folk stories from various cultures, designed specifically for Key Stage 1 students aged 5-7. It includes photocopiable activities that enhance comprehension and reading skills, preparing children for Year 2 assessments. The activities encourage not only word decoding and information retrieval but also skills like inference and opinion expression. Additionally, many follow-up tasks connect to PSHE and other subjects, while speaking and listening exercises align with the new curriculum's focus on developing these essential skills.
