Oxford Reading Tree Owls Playscripts: Stage 7: The Broken Roof

This playscript closely follows the original 'Oxford Reading Tree' story, designed to develop speaking and reading skills through role-playing and shared participation. It includes a maximum of 8 speaking parts, with additional non-speaking roles and sound effects. The series indicates longer and shorter parts in a casting note for teachers. Additionally, Talking Stories at Stage 6 include: 'In The Garden,' 'Kipper And The Giant,' 'Robin Hood'; and at Stage 7: 'Red Planet,' 'Lost In The Jungle,' 'The Broken Roof.' Each CD-ROM from Stage 2 upwards offers word, sentence, and text level activities. The teaching notes for the Oxford Reading Tree Biff, Chip and Kipper books are full of practical suggestions for using the storybooks, saving you hours of preparation time. They have been updated in line with the simple view of reading and the renewed Primary Framework for Literacy. They now include guidance for group/guided reading, comprehension and word recognition, and assessment. These replace the existing Teaching Notes and Guided Reading Cards. The storybooks are unchanged, but notes for parents/carers and teaching assistants have been added to the inside covers. These notes replace the existing Take-Home Cards.
