This book contains the teaching resources for Series Three (Books 17a-24a) of the weebee Reading Scheme. The colour pages are photocopy-able and are printed single sided so that they can alternatively simply be taken out and, for example, laminated. The games and activities in this book are designed to support the learning of vocabulary used in weebee books 17a-24a. A list of the new vocabulary introduced with each book, along with the story text is provided for all books. Lists of the high frequency words are also included for each book. The high frequency words are from the 250 most common words in written English that comprise, approximately seventy percent of juvenile material. Contemporary theory, specifically Michael Halliday’s Systemic Functional Grammar, has been applied to the design and implementation of these teaching materials. Much of the research evidence used in the development of this reading scheme was undertaken in the last decade. Evidence from neuroscience, eye-tracking technology, computer simulation, psychology and psycholinguistics all contributed to the development of these resources that have themselves been successfully trialled in sixteen primary schools in England as part of research undertaken at the Institute for Effective Education at the University of York. The guiding principle is learning through play.
