Starlight 2018 1st Class Core Reader

The Core Reader is for use between September and early January.  There are 16 texts in total, 1 for each of the 16 weeks.  As recommended by the Curriculum there is an equal balance of fiction and non-fiction texts across a range of genres, including: narrative, recount, report, procedure and poetry.  The texts are mapped to the corresponding book band levels recommended by the PDST and increase gradually in length and difficulty.
