READERS FOR CHILDREN

Whether children are read to, supported as they practise reading or read independently, there are a range of intellectual and emotional benefits they can take away from this experience.

Reading improves concentration, increases fluency (both written and spoken) stimulates the imagination, broadens vocabulary, encourages critical thinking skills and promotes empathy.

We offer a range of fiction and non-fiction readers because we understand the importance of turning reading for pleasure into a life-long habit!

Macmillan Children’s Readers

A fun, cultural and informative series of readers.

Divided into six levels for children from six to twelve years old.

  • Macmillan Children’s Readers reinforce the basic structures and vocabulary found in most Primary courses and make learning English a fun and informative experience.
  • The blend of ‘Fact Files’ and topical fiction stories in levels three to six motivates the older children and appeals to boys and girls equally.
  • A picture dictionary or wordlist and corresponding activity pages at the back of each reader provide a clear guide for learning key vocabulary.

 

The accompanying audio on our website give children a chance to listen to the stories while they read them.
