About The Storytime and Christmastime series : "Storytime Readers" is a series of storybooks especially designed to provide easy and enjoyable reading practice. They have been carefully graded into three stages and have been written in a way that will help teachers to use them as plays, thus providing an early introduction to drama as a means of learning. "Storytime Readers" tell tales of friendship, trust, family loyalty, kindness and love using colourful illustrations, dramatised audio recordings and engaging animations to stimulate the imagination of the pupils and encourage them to explore the wonderful world of the English language through literature, poetry and drama. The Storytime and Christmastime series have been designed to supplement all courses and motivate learners to explore English as a foreign language. Both series enhance receptive skills through reading and listening, but they also gradually introduce the development of productive skills through the accompanying activities and the production of each story as a play (optional). The stories present a great variety of classic and original tales, all of which have something more to teach than the language itself. The Teacher’s Edition includes the directions for the staging of each story as a play, tips on how to make the props and costumes, as well as drama activities which can be used to prepare learners for the wonderful world of drama (downloadable).
