The Oxford Literacy Web is an exciting new literacy programme designed to guide schools successfully through the primary years. Fitting the requirements of the National Literacy Strategy, National Curriculum in England and Wales, English Language 5-14 in Scotland, and Common Curriculum in Northern Ireland, the Oxford Literacy Web guides pupils through the core skills associated with learning to read and write with a diverse range of literary styles within the genres of fiction, non-fiction, rhymes, language, and poetry. The Fiction" strand: there can be no better way to learn to read than through the Duck Green School and Variety story strands. Exciting stories, hilarious events, and dynamic illustrations combine to ensure diversity and enjoyment. Variety stories extend children's experience of different styles of fiction. They reinforce vocabulary but include a more challening element to push upward toward the next level. The Stage 1 Consolidation cluster ("Magical World Stories") consists of 3 amusing stories about children who see the world in a surprising and magical way. Louise Gardner's colourful illustrations will instantly appeal to young readers. These stories consolidate the vocabulary learned in the Stage 1 Duck Green Stories. The Stage 1 Extension cluster ("Around the World Stories" by Cynthia Rider) comprises three traditional tales from other cultures, sensitively illustrated by Rhian Nest James. These stories extend vocabulary from Stage 1. The books are available in both standard and `big book' format."
