The Big books introduce the learners to a variety of text types.
The books include story text, simple factual text, rhymes, riddles,
jokes and graphic text and have been specially developed to
introduce the learners, in an informal manner, to a variety of
characteristics of printed text. The level of difficulty of the Big
Books increases from the first easy repetitive text in Big Book 1
to Big Book 16, where learners are expected to use their increasing
visual literacy skills and understanding of language. The books
have been specially written to suit the level of development, the
experiential/life world and the sense of humour of the Grade
3-learner. This book ties in with the topic “About me” in the
Learner’s Book and Teacher’s Guide. The books have also been
developed so that they can be used in more that one reading session
as is comprehensively explained in the teaching plans.
Part of three separate series, focusing on comprehension, spelling
and grammar to help focus teaching on the skills the children most
need to improve. All three series offer comprehensive support for
assessment and marking.
Voices of Scotland is an anthology of Scottish poetry with related
activities which has been designed for teachers working with
students at Second and Third Levels of Curriculum for Excellence.
It is the product of the Education Committee of the Association for
Scottish Literary Studies. From their wide experience of teaching
in Scottish schools, the members of the committee selected poems
which are accessible and enjoyable and give students a flavour of
the richness and breadth of Scotland's literary and linguistic
heritage from the earliest ballads to contemporary writing. The
selection covers a broad range of themes and reflects the
linguistic variety of Scottish poetry and, in particular, the
diverse voices of Scotland today. A wide range of reading, writing,
listening and talking activities cover many of the outcomes for
English. These activities are in no way prescriptive or exhaustive,
but are designed to give an idea of how best the poems could be
taught and explored. Suggestions are given for students to create
their own imaginative responses in writing and drama and to further
develop their work into other areas of the curriculum.
