Re: 分享外國或台灣童書收穫 (Part 2) (1-8歲適用) (from 27 Sept 05)

There are two Oxford Reading Tree's support side-series which carry fiction. The two sets are: DuckGreen (similar to ORT but stories lie in a school setting) and Variety (a set containing a wide variety of fiction stories and are written by famous authors)

Each of the above contains 10 stages (including starter stage and 1-9). Each stage has 6 books.

[size=small]Oxford Literacy Web - Variety

Series Editor: Keith Gaines

Children need a rich mixture of imaginative stories to extend their reading and imagination. They also require a variety of books to repeat and consolidate their core key word vocabulary. The Oxford Literacy Web’s Variety strand provides this and much more!

The strand is divided into two segments.

Consolidation Stories provide a different context for reading the key words introduced in the Duck Green School stories.

Extension Stories reinforce vocabulary but include a more challenging element to push upward towards the next level.

The books provide an inviting selection of styles and settings with the stress on make-believe and fantasy. Ideal for use alongside the Duck Green School Stories and Oxford Reading Tree.

Half of each 6 book pack are consolidation stories and the other extension storis. Famous authors write the stories e.g. Julia Donaldson...etc.

************
Stage 1

Consolidation Stories: Magical World Stories
Amusing stories about children who see the world in a magical way, much to the bemusement of the adults they are with.

Extension Stories: Around the World Stories
Traditional tales introduce children to other cultures from the earliest stages of learning to read.

*************
Stage 2

Consolidation Stories: Bear Tales
Humorous stories about Big Bear and his friends.

Extension Stories: Tig Stories
Introduce Tig, a friendly monster, who has some unusual first school experiences.

******************
Stage 3

Consolidation Stories: Little Dragon Stories
The adventures of accident-prone Little Dragon and her family.

Extension Stories: Deep Sea Stories
The antics of Octopus, Shark, and Hermit Crab and their friends are guaranteed to whet the appetite with their deep-sea adventures.

*******************
Stage 4

Consolidation Stories: Creepy-Crawly Stories
Creepy-crawly stories introduce the minibeasts: Billy Beetle, Alex Ant, and a wizard’s friendly bat.

Extension Stories: Animal Tricks Stories
Three animal fables widen the range of children’s reading experiences.

******************
Stage 5

Consolidation Stories: Sir Ben Stories
Sir Ben is an unwilling, somewhat cowardly knight who overcomes his fears and earns a collection of medals from the king for his daring deeds.

Extension Stories: Traditional Tales
Collected from around the world, the three traditional tales introduce another genre of stories. They will inspire the imagination and challenge reading levels.

******************
Stage 6

Consolidation Stories: Fantastic Four Stories
These rhyming stories, featuring patterned language, relate the boisterous adventures of friends and Rover the dog.

Extension Stories: Farm Animal Stories
Geraldine McCaughrean describes how Jilly the Horse arrives at the farm, meets the other animals and eventually joins in their adventures!

*********************
Stage 7

Consolidation Stories: Traditional Tales
Julia Donaldson retells three traditional folktales from Wales, England, and Scotland.

Extension Stories: World Stories of Childhood
Children can enjoy stories set in other cultures, including two stories set in the Caribbean and one in India.

*********************8
Stage 8

Consolidation Stories: Moneypenny Stories
Children will enjoy reading about the detective Moneypenny, the Yorkshire terrier – a small dog with very big ideas.

Extension Stories: Una the Unicorn Stories
Anne Adeney describes the adventures of Una the Unicorn who helps the good Timberlins to avoid the mischief of the nasty Grumps with her rhyming spells

************************
Stage 9

Consolidation Stories: Riduna Island Stories
Elisabeth Beresford, creator of the Wombles, has written these stories which describe adventures on Riduna Island, normally a quiet place, but on certain occasions, there’s a big story to tell...

Extension Stories: Folk Tales
Joan Aiken, renowned author of The Wolves of Willoughby Chase, retells these traditional folk tales of a wise girl who wins herself a king, a young man who finds himself a useful servant, and a very kind girl who finds herself in trouble.

kittylock,

how is your son's progress in ORT recently? Does he read the content aloud or just read by sight?

For all moms,

If you have time, pls share how you arrange reading for your kids. I really want to gain from others' experience.

Re potty training, lately my son will say 'urgent! urgent!' when he wants to wee but still request diaper for poops.

The VIP gift is a backpack with a story CD and a little doll (Marlin/Renee/Skookey).

Last time I also did not participate the event cos it's expensive (around $200 per person incl buffet lunch). I just called and told them that I was not be able to join. Then request going to their office (at Sheung Wan) to take the gift.

Re: 分享外國或台灣童書收穫 (Part 2) (1-8歲適用) (from 27 Sept 05)

Just read some interesting post from other forum.

One of the BK mum said that she's received invitation of 2nd interview from St. Paul Co-ed.

Then other BK mum made the following post:

Do you mind telling us whether your boy is very smart, where you live, whether you are rich and which kindergarten your boy is studying?

I understand these are very personal. But as we are still waiting, your answers may give us some hints whether we have any chance

If you were the mum being asked, what will be your reply?

btw, I trust that mum will get invitation/rejection letter sooner or later gar la ......
