Connectors: Ollie and Ruby x 6 Pack

Connectors is a groundbreaking reading scheme which narrows the attainment gap through peer-to-peer learning. Children work in small independent groups, each taking a turn to be the leader as they read a book together.

Clear prompts represented by coloured faces show each child when it is their turn to read and lead, and how to focus group debate by asking the others to predict outcomes, clarify issues and pose questions. This exciting approach builds reading and listening skills and promotes teamwork and participation.

The Sutton Trust ranks peer tutoring as one of the most effective ways to improve achievement, with disadvantaged and low achieving pupils making particular gains.

Now, for the first time, the Connectors series branches out into fiction, allowing children to develop their skills by enjoying lively book-banded stories. In Ollie and Ruby, a girl decides to cheat at maths by copying her friend’s work. What will happen when they get caught?

This pack contains six copies of Ollie and Ruby, graded for Book Band Turquoise.
