Fun, engaging and effective, Story Friends (TM) is the first research-based Tier 2 language intervention programme for 3- to 5-year-old children at risk for reading difficulties. Through interactive animal-themed storybooks and lively, engaging audio recordings, Story Friends (TM) effectively boosts oral language and vocabulary development - two of the most important predictors of later reading success. With colourful illustrations, rhyming text, interactive story components, and appealing narration, the programme hooks and holds young attention spans.

Story Friends (TM) is a natural fit with any existing classroom schedule or curriculum, so it's easier than ever to deliver interventions when they matter most, and get all young children ready to read and succeed.

Packed in a sturdy box with a handle for easy carrying, this kit contains: one Teacher Guide with complete guidance on implementing the programme; three sets of 26 full-colour, animal-themed storybooks; one USB with the audio tracks that accompany each storybook (252 minutes of instruction); and one set of 18 shrink-wrapped picture cards for assessing children's acquisition of words.

Ideal for use in a wide variety of early childhood education settings, this convenient kit contains the materials you need to implement the Story Friends (TM) early language and literacy intervention.
