Read at Home - 1b: Silly Races

Más información sobre el libro

The CD is located in a plastic envelope inside the back cover of the storybook. The story is read once for enjoyment and then again for children to read along, with a sound signaling page turns. A brief introduction encourages reflection on the cover and the story's themes, while a puzzle activity is highlighted. The Think About questions are presented at the end. Read at Home is aligned with the Oxford Reading Tree, a leading reading scheme in the UK, utilized in over 75% of primary schools. Each story includes engaging activities to enhance reading enjoyment, such as a puzzle activity, games like mazes or spot-the-difference, and a treat for children at the story's conclusion. Parental support is emphasized with a "Tips for Reading Together" page offering practical reading assistance, a "Think about the Story" page for stimulating discussions, and a "Useful common words" panel that identifies high-frequency words related to the National Literacy Strategy. The authors, Roderick Hunt and Cynthia Rider, bring over 50 years of educational experience, while Alex Brychta's humorous illustrations captivate readers. The titles are designed for sharing with beginner readers, slightly wider than Ladybird books to showcase the vibrant illustrations. Read at Home actively supports government initiatives encouraging parental involvement in children's reading.
