Hands up any parent or teacher who doesn't know about the Literacy Hour. Well, you must have been asleep in class for at least a year!
Every primary school in England is required to operate the Literacy Hour, following a curriculum prescribed in detail. One result has been a demand for teaching materials designed to fulfil the new requirements. These books have been produced to introduce Biblical stories and themes into the Literacy Hour and provide links to Religious Education. There are two books for Key Stage 1 (ages 5-7) and two for Key Stage 2 (ages 8-11). The first of each pair is based on stories from the Bible, while the second introduces Bible background material from the New Testament for Key Stage 1 and the Old Testament for Key Stage 2.
