Synopsis

"Inside Stories 3", the third book in this four-volume series, is concerned to assist students explore the nature and roots of story, the act of reading, and their own critical response rather than to offer merely "comprehension-type" activities. It is geared to the needs of pupils working towards Key Stage 4 and it reflects, the needs of the teachers of such groups. The range of authors represents some of the best of modern story writers from several nationalities, reflecting the view that the range of stories presented in classrooms should be diverse, multi-cultural and include American and Commonwealth writers as well as translations. There is an attempt to promote an awareness of the roots of story such as those in fairy story, classical myth and legend, and the Bible. This volume also includes fables and parables which have their roots in the oral tradition. In common with the other books of this series "Inside Stories 3" is divided into two main sections. Section A is a "teaching section" which focuses on specific aspects of storytelling or on types of story, and encourages pupils to think critically about stories, question authorial stance and intention, recognize that attitudes and beliefs expressed are not necessarily those of the author, and be aware of the choices made by writers with regard to vocabulary, imagery, genre, forms and style. Section B is a teaching anthology of stories loosely linked by theme into sections. Each story is accompanied by a teaching section, the aim of which is to prompt students to think more deeply about what they have read, about how it operates and about how they respond. The activities related to the text are wide ranging and are designed to further understanding of the structures and techniques used by tellers and writers of stories.
