Teaching reading – don't just do it by the book!
i-read for Key Stage 1
Series Editors Pie Corbett and Ann Webley
Develop children's reading skills by building word-, sentence- and text-level work into their enjoyment of a high-quality text.
Series Editor, Ann Webley
"i-read is all about teaching children to read - rather than leaving them simply to bark at the print. This resource gives children the opportunity to interact with fiction, non-fiction and poetry texts in order to develop all those higher order reading skills which are so crucial not only in literacy but right across the curriculum – and for life."
Ann Webley, Series Editor
