Gwion's World: Band 14/Ruby

Collins Big Cat supports every primary child on their reading journey from phonics to fluency. Top authors and illustrators have created fiction and non-fiction books that children love to read. Book banded for guided and independent reading, there are reading notes in the back, comprehensive teaching and assessment support and ebooks available. If you’re wondering who that is, sitting at the back of the classroom, ignoring everyone else, it’s me, Gwion. Sometimes it’s easier to pretend I’m somewhere else, doing something else; what’s going on inside my head is so much more interesting than the real world anyway. Or so I thought. Ruby/Band 14 books give increasing opportunities for children to develop their skills of inference and deduction. Pages 46 and 47 allow children to re-visit the content of the book, supporting comprehension skills, vocabulary development and recall. Ideas for reading in the back of the book provide practical support and stimulating activities.
