Publisher's Synopsis
The Fact Finders series is a non-fiction component of Oxford's popular infant reading scheme, Oxford Reading Tree. The Fact Finders introduce non-fiction books to infant children, and focus on developing the information retrieval and handling skills they need to use them effectively. The series encompasses a whole range of genres, illustration styles, and subject focuses. The units progress in difficulty from Unit A through to Unit F. The accompanying teacher's guides offer teaching strategies and photocopiable activities. Unit A, `Myself', supports National Curriculum Science, Technology, and History, as well as developing reading skills and demonstrating different styles of non-fiction writing. The books also reinforce safety, health, and care messages for the youngest infants.
