The
"Fairy Tale Land" site is aimed at Yr 1 and Yr 2 children but there
are some activities relevant to some younger or older children. The
exercises will be of particular use when the fairytale is the focus
text of the week, to reinforce sight recognition of new words that
occur in the story. This will in turn assist children's own story
writing.
The activities on the "Fairy Tale Land" site are intended to be used
as part of the Literacy Hour as independent, small group or paired
activities. As a guide for teachers, National Literacy Strategy Links
are included on the contents pages.
Most activities have simple instructions on the page to follow. There
are back buttons on most pages but on internet pages the back button
on the top tool bar should be used.
In order to use Textease activities, your computer must have the Textease
program installed. Some activities have direct internet links to related
resources.
