Oxford Reading Tree (Levelled Readers) Jan/2015
This year Crehana N.S. has started using levelled readers. This means that each child will be reading a book at their own level, thus replacing class readers.
With your help we hope levelled readers will be purchased next year for 1st and 2nd classes. It is hoped that Crehana N.S. will eventually be able to provide levelled books for all children. Oxford Reading Tree: The UK's number one reading programme has taught millions of children to read... and to love to read. Rooted in reading for pleasure and with systematic phonics at its heart, Oxford Reading Tree's well-loved characters, breadth and unrivalled support give you everything your children need to become confident readers.
