Magpies Playscripts
Magpies Playscripts are a lively set of playscript adaptations of the original six Magpies storybooks at Stage 8. These are ideal for consolidation and reading practice, and can be used with groups or individuals. They teach the conventions of drama and develop skills in reading aloud and shared reading. Each play has a cast list of between four and six characters including one or more narrators. There are six lines of text per page and suggestions for sound effects. The words are close to the original story and the artwork is completely re-drawn to show similar scenes to the original storybooks.. Magpies is an older reading scheme from ORT. Its original books have become the newer labelled Storybooks at Stages 8 and 9. Magpies Workbooks provide valuable reading and language support for the Magpies Storybooks at Stages 8 and 9. The range of activities to accompany each storybook encourages children to look more closely at the stories, to focus on comprehension, aspects of language and grammar; develop greater rhyme awareness; sequencing skills and alphabet knowledge and creative writing. There is a progression within the stage and from stages 8 to 9.
