Re: 分享旺角的大陸童書書店收穫

Hello bau,

There are some other titles, like the Bible Stories, Miffy, and .... (I couldn't remember all.). According to Ms. Fong, she can source the VCDs published by Innoform. You may call her directly and ask her to place an order for the Peter Rabbit.

Yes. The price is for the magic key VCDs only.

(The ORT books are distributed by Greenfield only. Or you may buy the Oxford Story Tree by OUP.)

Re: 分享旺角的大陸童書書店收穫

Hello FXPC

My daughter is studying in traditional primary school, when compare with the school life in Kindergarten, it is busy than before. I did not set high expectation for her school exam or test or dictation, but she has to spend time to study every day between 30 minutes to one hour, it depends. I do encourage her to read story books rather than just study the school books.

I learned from the "rimary School" section that you son will go to P.1 in 2006, you start to do the research now? You are really a great mother.

Re: 分享旺角的大陸童書書店收穫

Hello,

I am interested in the Magic Key VCDs but are the stories inside relate to ORT stories? Or they only use the characters in ORT to present the discussion topics?

And are the VCDs in English?

Many thanks.

Re: 分享旺角的大陸童書書店收穫

Hello YSmom,

The Magic Key series are based on characters in the Oxford Reading Tree series, written by Roderick Hunt and illustrated by Alex Brychta.

The programs are all in ENGLISH only. It's not just a simple story. Each programme features at least one of the educational themes (e.g. sentence structure, adjectives, verbs, rhymes, etc....) in the literacy curriculum appropriate for 4-7 years old.

*suitable for elder kids (probably 4+)

The Magic Key

Oxford Reading Tree on television – a learning adventure


Combining education and entertainment in a unique format, The Magic Key is an exciting new TV series for 4-7 year olds. Each show features the popular characters from Oxford Reading Tree in entirely original animated adventures.

Created by Rod Hunt and Alex Brychta, Oxford Reading Tree is the most widely loved and popular reading programme in the UK, used in over 18,000 primary schools. In fact, if you visit any primary school in the country today, you'll almost certainly find some evidence of Biff, Chip, Kipper, Floppy, and their friends.

The TV series is the result of a unique collaboration between Oxford University Press (publishers of Oxford Reading Tree), the BBC, and HIT Entertainment.



The Magic Key is a beautifully animated series, developed by HIT Entertainment PLC, the BBC, and OUP. Based on the NLS requirements for Year 1, each of the 26 programmes will follow a similar structure:

* an introductory sequence in which a main character introduces the topic of the week (such as full stops, capital letters, etc.) supported by text on screen

* a 'Floppy moment' in which Floppy gives us a humorous reinforcement of the key learning objective

* a Magic Key adventure which uses an exciting and amusing story to illustrate the main learning objective

* further reinforcement of the key learning objective with text on screen

* a 'goodbye' to the audience which ties up the theme by going over key words and phrases from the programme

* the programmes will not only captivate children, but also help you to deliver sentence and text level work in a new and imaginative way


Here are some of the sample clips of the Magic Key VCDs from BBC official website:

Clip1 Capital Letters

Clip 2 Sentences making sense

Clip 3 Working out new words

Clip 4 Labels

Clips are provided in QuickTime format.

Re: 分享旺角的大陸童書書店收穫

Hello FXPC,

Good morning and thanks for your information.

May I know if there are books accompanying the VCDs or it's just a learning programme on VCD?

Thanks again.

Re: 分享旺角的大陸童書書店收穫

Hello YSmon, cwy

To my understanding, you would not find any of these 19 titles in the Magic Key series appear in the ORT. The level of Magic Key series is ~ ORT level 6/7/8 which are suitable for elder kids 4-5+. The MK books are more colorful than the ORT and the MK books are in bigger in size.

BBC has adopted the characters from ORT (Kipper, Chip, Biff, Floppy, etc,...) and to develop a series of educational programmes (teaching english reading and writing skill). In parallel with the BBC TV program, they've published this set of books together.

Probably you may buy the first 2 volumes of the MK VCDs to see if your son (?) love the stories.


Hello evelyn317,

Yes, you can check out from the public library. The books are good in quality but expensive than ORT.

Later on (~ yr 2002), other than the 19 titles, BBC / OUP picked out 6 more stories from original ORT and developed them into the TV program too.

Lost in the Jungle
Red Planet
Robin Hood
Kipper and the Giant
The Laughing Princess
The Shiny Key

Therefore, these 6 extra titles are appeared in both the Magic Key series and the ORT level 6/7(OST 4).
(The text in these 2 versions are nearly the same.)

Re: 分享旺角的大陸童書書店收穫

Hi FXPC,

I have checked with Commercial press and found that they have only 7 titles out of the total of 19 books in MK series.

Silver also told me that the patent right of MK has been sold by OUP to BBC/M&S and hence she cannot help to order them.

Do you know where can I get the MK books?

Hello kitty,

I bought all MK books (19+6) from Silver a year ago.

Oh! No wonder I found the MK activity books from M/S outlet last Christmas!!! (But M/S marked up the price of the MK book to >$4X. )
