LOST have created a set of resources we have called Literacy Out of the Box. The resources are suggestions for tasks across all 8 curricular areas which link to the reading of a particular story. Click on Introduction to Literacy Out of the Box Resources to find out more and, where possible, find links to video and audio readings.
