Story Stacks a recourse for learning at KS1,2 & 3
 
 
School: Merridale Primary School
Fellow: Gretel Roberts

  Aim
 
  To produce a teaching aid for infant school children that will assist in the development of their reading. This will be achieved by linking together teachers and pupils from secondary schools and their feeder primary schools. By working together in small groups it is envisaged that KS2 and KS3 pupils will produce a story stack.
