Shared reading with big books allows the teacher to model reading skills and strategies. Our big books are perfect for guided reading and sharing.
Level 7 & 8 are a combined set of 20 books which introduce more complex sounds, new vocabulary and include a reduced number of pictures to build confidence in reading longer texts. The pre-reading activities help to activate prior knowledge and introduce new vocab. The post-reading activities include questions to ensure children have comprehended the text and a revision of new vocab.
