Providing a balanced approach to the teaching of reading skills and strategies, this series consists of a range of materials in each of eight stages, numbered 0 to 7, and provides coverage of the National Curriculum and Scottish 5-14 Guidelines. These 12 specially written, designed and illustrated books provide an assessment/diagnostic strand for use with new starters and children entering the school up to Y2/P3. Teacher's notes and a photocopiable reading-profile sheet are included.
