The "Oxford Literacy Web" is a literacy programme designed to guide schools successfully through the primary years. Fitting the requirements of the National Literacy Strategy, National Curriculum in England and Wales, English Language 5-14 in Scotland, and Common Curriculum in Northern Ireland, it guides pupils through the core skills associated with learning to read and write with a diverse range of literary styles within the genres of fiction, non-fiction, rhymes, language and poetry. The fiction strand helps children to learn to read through the Duck Green School and Variety story strands. Stories, events, and illustrations combine to ensure diversity and enjoyment. In the Duck Green School stories, early school experiences are brought to life through a cast of lovable characters. Children can enjoy their own "soap opera" while learning specific vocabulary in context. In the Stage 1 Duck Green Stories, the reception class children find out more about life at Duck Green School, rescue an injured baby bird, and attend a Bonfire Night fireworks party. The books are available in both standard and "big book" format.
Stage 1 offers complete stories with a few simple words on each spread and patterned easy-to-read text. The stories introduce 12 key words, with the text closely linked to the illustrations.
