Great stories at your fingertips

Online stories are easily accessible to all. They can be downloaded, printed out and used immediately, which is ideal for busy parents and teachers. You can choose from classic tales or modern stories. Each story is well written and nicely presented, and is appropriate for the age group; either preschool or kindergarten. For the child, the appeal of the printed story is that they are colouful and fun, and often have cute illustrations. They can also be interactive with questions and tasks, helping to further develop a child’s reading and comprehension ability whilst expanding their vocabulary.

Printable stories are perfect for both homeschoolin and in the classroom. For mums and dads wishing to give their children a literacy boost, stories downloaded from the web and printed out can be used effectively at home, for example, at bedtime or while out and about, such as during a picnic in the park. In a classroom setting, printable stories can be a versatile learning resource. The original printed story can be photocopied and handed out to each child and worksheets can be created based on the story.

Magical process

Stories are magical to children. Adventures unfold and imaginations run wild as the words jump from the page and come magically to life. As parents and teachers we can make the process of learning to read magical too by finding creative ways of teaching. Printable stories is one such way.

IN THE COUNTRY BY F GRAY SEVERNE

Ducklings big and ducklings small,

This is how we feed them all–

Yellowbill and Featherbreast,

Speckletail, and all the rest:–

On sweet meal they dine and sup–

Oh, how fast they eat it up!

‘Tis indeed a pretty sight–

Soon the bucket’s empty quite.

“Quack!” when dinner is begun;

“Quack!” they say when it is done;

Though it wasn’t known before,

“Quack’s” a duckling’s word for “more.”

Then the pretty feathered things

Tuck their heads beneath their wings,

Just as if for rest inclined,

Quacking: “How well we have dined!”

Later on, at evening cool,

You will find them in the pool;

Yellowbill and Featherbreast,

Speckletail, and all the rest!

TOBY THE CLOWN

Toby’s the most famous clown,

In the country or the town;

Never was a laugh so ringing,

When the children hear him singing!

See, he stands upon two legs,

With his hat for coppers begs;

Do you think that you, if you

Was a dog, as much could do?

Little maid and little man,

Throw him all the pence you can!

When perhaps he’ll show you how

He says “Thank you,” Bow! wow! wow!
