Re: oxford reading tree books

panther they read are there own pace, i noticed that when reece was reading them, as long as you encourage him and have him reading them at home thats all that matters, the oxford books are pretty new and a lot better than the old books they used to have, i wouldnt worry about it

Not sure about the stages!! My youngest is nearly 9 years old now, can't remember what stage he was on when he was 7.

You could always have a word with his teacher!

My little boy is nearly six and he's on Stage 5.

But to be honest, I really don't think it matters what stage they're on as long as they're happy and understanding what they're reading. Zack's just at that fun stage when he's reading all signs and notices out as we walk/drive along.

I think his teacher would be the best person to ask Panther, though I agree with Flashy children read at their own pace, not sure what stage Ellies on because her school have just changed their system to colour coded and the Oxford books are only read at home now they use different for lessons, I just try to make reading fun and do a bit every day.

all schools get a yearly budget, believe me all schools should have these new books, there is something desperately wrong if they dont, its no good them having old books when life changes so much over the years, being an ex school governor i know these things

Re: oxford reading tree books

the schools that i have worked in have been schools in deprived areas and most of the children couldnt read them even if they had them...

Re: oxford reading tree books

deprived or not, most schools get the same or a similar budget every year, the LEA wouldnt allow a school to use books from say 10 years ago

Re: oxford reading tree books

the schools money is eaten up by bi-lingual assistants, extra teaching assistants and special support assistants, some are also having to employ extra staff to control the children at break times and these are paid for by the school not the lea..the last place i worked at was a ks2 class and there were only 10 children out of 60 on a reading scheme all others where on free choice of picture books....
