  • This Travelling Tale features quality texts from a well known author, great for sharing with children; the patterned language provides opportunities for choral reading and retelling, naturally encouraging audience participation.
  • Each bag provides a window into a new world where the children can learn new ideas and information allowing children to create their own play with the characters, further developing vocabulary and language.
  • The games in the sack link to the text and provide the opportunity to work collaboratively and promote turn taking, whilst also extending and developing the story.
  • Explain clearly their understanding of what is read to them, participate in discussion about what is read to them, taking turns and listening to what others say.
  • Understand both the books they can already read accurately and fluently and those they listen to by predicting what might happen on the basis of what has been read so far. 
  • Develop pleasure in reading, motivation to read, vocabulary and understanding by: becoming very familiar with key stories, fairy stories and traditional tales, retelling them and considering their particular characteristics.
