ORT work for my son well at pre-school stage. But when he is in primary school ORT sounds a bit boring for him. He needs more interesting stories that relate to his school life. ORT's context not fit for him at that stage. But ORT provides a good foundation for reading interest, foundation words and phonics.

ORT not work very well with my daughter as the stories not attracting to her. I don't know why.. but so this is the fact, I change my strategies, trying various kinds of books, princess series, but these book design are not good for kids, too many words in one page, kids like my daugher lost interest.

Raz kids is good for her and motivate her through level enhancements.

我細囝本身不太喜歡看書，我是硬性規定他每晚都要讀一本ORT給我聽，我用Oxford stories Tree, 佢讀哂所有level我就無再要佢讀。改變策略，買關於他興趣的書，例如star wars, LEGO書。有時得閒些就逼他看一本故事書，通常有幾本給他選，程度稍淺（一版0﹣2個字唔識）。最近在找到一些national geographic kids的書，又是叫他每晚選一本看。他原本是沒興趣的，但看多 了就開始喜歡。
我覺得要能夠獨立閱讀，起碼要過ORT的程度，識字要夠多才行。之前都係伴讀，或者讀給他聽多。過了ORT，就大多自己睇書了。

Curious to ask, what is ORT???

ORT=Oxford Reading Tree

It has different stories, major target readers are kindergarten and primary school readers.
One of its most popular story lines is Kipper, Biff & Chip stories. The series from stage 1-9, from pure graphic books to 40 pages stories. It also has Floppy Phonics & Magic Key Adventures.
The books are being used by many primary schools in UK.

Because of its popularity, Oxford University Press has launched another new series of Kipper Stories - The Time Traveller.  It targets for elder kids in primary school.  The stories are the extension of Magic Key Adventure & happened around 5 years after. Starts from Stage 10.

Little Miss and Mr Men series are also very interesting and inspiring to little kids. But some vocabularies may require parents help to explain. But I always treat this as a good chance to teach my kid how to use the Dictionary.

ORT 是oxford reading tree， 有很多level, 每個level又有幾本書。我其實無用這套，因為太多書，買唔起！
我用OST （oxford story tree）好似只有7個level.
關於閱讀，我有三個策略：
1．OST對我囝囝來說是功課，不是興趣閱讀。由最低level開始，每晚讀一本給我聽，有幾本可供他們選，讀到熟就升級。
2．我同時就買了很多和他們興趣有關的書， 放在家中隨他們閱讀，不用讀給我聽，我亦不會讀給他們聽。有字唔識就自己去查字典。
3．我再選一些程度深些但有意義的，例如經典名著，每晚讀少少給他們聽。

睇英文書對英文既幫助真係好大。

我女小一時英文唔係叻嗰班，嗰時佢岩岩開始學公文，因為擔心佢追唔上學校程度。

到小一下學期，佢開始受同學影響睇The Tiara Club,當然佢岩開始時都有字唔識，但靠上文下理，佢都明得九成。慢慢開始佢睇Rainbow Magic,Magic Tree House等，自此佢英文慢慢提升，仲會嘗試仿作，寫下小書。小一時由學校分組上Native English Grand B 升到上A，考試一直keep 住9字頭，到小二時已經追到英文全班頭幾名。到今年小四，學校測考英文暫時都係全班第一。

有而家既成績，除靠佢自己努力外，課外閱讀絕對功不可沒！而我除左無限量買書供應，同查字外，冇乜可以幫到

寫咁多係度同大家分享，係希望唔好盲目操練習，語言一定要浸，唔會係一兩個學期就見成效，但可以講，睇書既收獲真係比想像中大！呢度都有好多媽咪以閱讀培養小朋友英文，我見有好多成功例子

Yes, agree with you. Since I have bought a series of VCD related to the stories, that enhance her interest. So at first, I will play the Mandarin VCD on little miss, then English, then the reading. The process repeat and repeat within two weeks.

Since my girl got difficulties in reading and writing, then I have to use repeated pattern of learning and visual media to stimulate her impressions on the words.

Right.  My kid now can read books with thousand of words and fewer pictures.  Pictures will always distract their attention in reading.  She is now in P.2 but can read a thick book without many pictures.  When she comes across any difficult words, she will look up from the dictionary if times allows (real dictionary, but not the electronic ones).  If not,  no issue at all to do a wild guess...after all, coming across with difficult words won't really affect her understanding in knowing what is all about in the story...

Check dictionary may slow down the reading speed a bit. But this could made the kids learn more vocabulary in a formal manner. If the kids do a progressive reading. Time spent on checking dictionary should not be substantial.

When I read Lord of the Rings, Les Miserable and Da Vinnci Code, Sometimes I still refer to the Dictionary.
