What is the Oxford Reading Tree?
Oxford Reading Tree (ORT) is one of the most popular reading schemes in the world. It is highly successful because children love the characters and want to read about them, it is easy for teachers to use, and is an ideal way to encourage more parental support. Every book in the scheme tells a complete story. Young children can remember a simple story told in natural sounding language even if they cannot read separate words or letters.
Features of ORT
ORT is divided into stages. You can easily identify each stage by the colour on its cover. As children progress on to each new stage the stories gradually increase in number of words and the difficulty of the sentences.
Children follow the 'trunk' of the tree. This is made up of core stories from Stages 1 to 9. Stage 1 teaches important prereading skills. Stages 1 to 5 introduce specific reading skills, which are developed as children progress through Stages 6 to 11 to become fluent and confident readers. TreeTops extend the tree for 7 to 11 year olds. Children learning English may take one or tow years to complete Stages 1 to 5. The stories in the scheme are written in the simple past tense. This is the natural tense we use for stories, for example, 'Once upon a time there was a princess'. It is also the tense we use when questioning children. Teachers all over the world find this to be a positive feature of ORT.
