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, the Literacy Web 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. In the Duck Green School stories, part of the Fiction Strand of the series, early school experiences are brought to life through a cast of characters. Children can enjoy their own "soap opera" while learning specific vocabulary in context. In Stage 5 Duck Green Stories a fantasy element is introduced through the storytelling of Leela's grandparents, Mr and Mrs Lalloo. We learn about the sneezing dragon and Wiz, the Weather Wizard, Leela plans a surprise for Poppy, and Jo gets hiccups! The final 36 key words are introduced at this stage. The books are available in both standard and "big book" format.
