Pori Drwy Stori Nursery Programme Practitioner Guide
Welcome to the Pori Drwy
Stori Nursery programme!
Pori Drwy Stori inspires a love of books, stories and
rhymes and supports children to develop speaking,
listening and numeracy skills. It is designed to support
the home-school/ home-setting link and to encourage
parents/carers to play an active role in their child’s
learning.
The Pori Drwy Stori programme has been available for
all children in Reception in Wales since 2012.
This programme will reach 15000 Nursery children in
2019-20.
Pori Drwy Stori is delivered by
BookTrust Cymru and funded
by the Welsh Government.
Programme aims
The Pori Drwy Stori Nursery programme aims to improve
educational outcomes for children in Nursery.
It aims to do this be providing engaging resources and activities
that fit the principles of the Foundation Phase and the Literacy and
Numeracy Framework, which support learning in the school/setting
and at home and which facilitate a home-school/home-setting link.
• Specific aim 1: To improve oracy-related outcomes for
children.
• Specific aim 2: To increase parents’/carers’ engagement
with their child’s learning, specifically in relation to activities
which support oracy outcomes.
• Specific aim 3: To increase practitioners’ knowledge and
understanding of, and practice relating to, how they can
improve oracy outcomes for children, especially by engaging
parents and carers.

What can the
programme achieve?
The overall aim of the Pori Drwy Stori Nursery programme is to improve educational
outcomes for children in Nursery, especially in relation to oracy skills. We hope that the
programme will also have a positive impact on parents / carers and support practitioners, too.
The programme is designed to be flexible and we hope that you will use it in the way that you
think best supports your children and priorities.
Here are some of the things that we hope the Pori Drwy Stori Nursery programme can
achieve. Of course, we would not expect every outcome to be achieved in every Nursery!
However, we hope this gives you some ideas about how you can make the most of the
programme.
Children...
• know more rhymes and songs
• enjoy sharing rhymes and songs
more and share them more often
• enjoy sharing books more
• talk about books more
Parents/Carers…
• share rhymes and songs more often with their child
• enjoy sharing books with their child more and feel that
reading for pleasure is important
• use books to prompt talk and play with their child more
• communicate more with their child’s school or setting
and feel more engaged with their child’s learning
Practitioners...
• understand more about the role of rhymes and songs in
oracy development
• create more opportunities for sharing rhymes and songs
(in English and Welsh)
• increase their use of books to support oracy outcomes
• develop new ways of communicating with parents/carers
and/or supporting the home-Nursery link

5How to make the most of
Pori Drwy Stori Nursery:
Key recommendations
Pori Drwy Stori is designed to be flexible and to be adapted to different children, families
and settings. However, based on feedback and evaluation, we strongly advise that you
follow these six key recommendations to make the programme a success.
1 Plan how you will use Pori Drwy Stori Nursery. Take time to
become familiar with the resources and to organise them once
they arrive. Plan for links to other activities and Areas of Learning.
Introduce the whole programme to parents and carers.
Many schools and settings run friendly meetings or workshops to
2 introduce the programme to parents and carers. Some introduce
the programme at one-to-one parent meetings. Others use letters
and social media to share information. The more parents and
carers know about the programme, what to do and the difference
it will make, the more likely they are to get involved.
Introduce the resources to children in Nursery before they
3 take them home. The more excited children are about the
resources, the more likely they are to share this excitement with
their families. It will also help children use the resources at home
if they are familiar with them and know what to do.
Maintain communication with parents and carers
4 throughout the programme. Talk to them about what they’re
doing when they drop off and collect children. Use the feedback
slips in the resources. Use Twitter or classroom apps to develop
two-way communication with parents and carers and to see the
resources in use at home.
Make links between the resources and what you do in
5 your Nursery. Make the resources available as part of your
Continuous Provision. Plan activities which link to the rhymes and
the books. Link the rhymes and books to Foundation Phase Areas
of Learning.
6 Use each resource across a half term. This will enable you to
develop and sustain links with the home and to develop oracy
outcomes over time.
6More ideas for getting
the most out of Pori
Drwy Stori Nursery
Use the programme to support your Foundation Phase Profile
1 assessment (the links in the outcomes on page 7 will help you).
At the end of the programme, make sure parents and carers
2 know that their children will receive Pori Drwy Stori
throughout their Reception year.
Signpost parents and carers to the online resources available –
3 including rhyme videos and sound files of the Welsh versions of the
books (booktrust.org.uk/poridrwystori-nursery).
If you are an English-medium setting or a setting with a lot of Welsh
4 learners, use the bilingual resources to build confidence in Welsh
for both parents/carers and children.
Use the programme to find out more about the home learning
5 environment for different children in your Nursery. Ask children
and parents/carers how they have used the resources.
Emphasise the importance of reading for pleasure and having fun
6 with the Book Talk books.
If you have children in your Nursery who don’t have English or
Welsh as their first language, ask them to share a rhyme from
7 their own mother tongue. Engage their parents/
carers in this activity.
If you have a mixed class that includes some
children who are not eligible to receive
programme resources (e.g. Reception children or
8 younger Nursery children), you can still learn the
rhymes and share the books together and have
fun as a whole class.
7Examples of good practice to
give you some inspiration!
Engaging families
Here are some ideas to help parents and carers understand the resources and get the most
from them with their child:
• Organise an open session or parent meeting to explain what families will receive and
when. Talk to families about why rhymes matter and the benefits of sharing books.
• Display posters and information on the nursery door or at the drop off point.
• Use social media/your website/classroom apps to:
- introduce the programme and resources
- update families on what will be coming home next
- post reminders on what to do and how to have fun at home
- share links to the resources on the Pori Drwy Stori website e.g. the rhyme videos
- post photos of the children, letting parents see the resources in action
• Use the feedback slips in the resources to start conversations with parents/carers
about what they have done and what they have enjoyed doing.

share the rhymes with their parents/carers – get them to join in,
too! Children could even dress up as characters from the rhymes!
8Book Talk
• Read the books in nursery before the children
take them home. This will help increase the
children’s excitement and help them become familiar
with the books. Children’s excitement can often
rub off on their families! Hearing the books again
and again will also help children become familiar
and confident with the language.
• Read the story in a special place for the first time
to make it memorable e.g. outside or under a
parachute.
• Place toy dragon or picture of the characters from
Every Body Has a Body in a basket. Let the
children pick one out and match it to the correct
page in the book. Use language from the books to
talk about the toys with the children.
• Make a video or record yourself reading the
books. Share it with families via social media.
Children will love sharing it at home with their
families! It will also help you model reading the
books and could support increased parental
engagement.
• Use the books as a springboard to explore
other topics and themes e.g. dragons, friendship,
opposites or differences. Can you think of additional
activities, rhymes or stories about the dragons,
friendship or differences?
• Find other books in your school/setting that are
linked to Amazing and Everybody Has A Body. You
could ask children to bring in any linked books that
they have at home.
• Place a copy of the books in the book corner or
around the nursery to encourage children to pick
them up and ‘read’ independently. Observe the
children as they become familiar with the story,
rhymes and illustrations and support them to talk
about and re-tell the stories on their own and to
each other.
• Everybody Has A Body is a rhyming book. Point out
the rhyming words to the children and ask them
to think of other words that rhyme. Can they think
of a word that rhymes with their own name? Start
by using your name as an example. You could invite
parents / carers to take a photo of their child at
home with a rhyming object or action e.g. Lilly being
silly, Ben in his den.
• Celebrate completing Book Talk with a fun
session for families – you could hold a special
storytime session based on the two books.
9Supporting the Foundation
Phase Framework
The Pori Drwy Stori Nursery programme can support a number of Foundation Phase Oracy
outcomes. This table gives some examples.
Foundation Phase Framework Skills LNF/AoL?
Express some enjoyment or interest e.g. talk about what they liked to do at home
(use the feedback slips), talk about their favourite rhymes or why they like/don’t like LNF
the books
Retell, in simple terms, an event or an experience e.g. talk about what they did
with the resources at home LNF
Use newly learned vocabulary in and through play activities e.g. use words
from the rhymes and books in their play, including when using the game resources AoL
(duck cards, finger puppets etc)
Speak clearly enough to be understood by adults and peers e.g. when talking
about the rhymes and books LNF
Understand how to use simple questions, e.g. ‘Why?’, ‘How?’ and ‘Can I?’, to
establish why things happen and to clarify understanding e.g. asking questions about AoL
the stories
Engage in sound and word play e.g. share the rhymes, guess the rhyming words,
add their own rhyming words, fill in the missing rhyming word AoL
Recognise rhythm and rhyme in spoken words and join in with rhythmic
activities e.g. share the rhymes, clap or stamp rhythms, predict the rhyming words AoL
Listen and attend with growing attention and concentration e.g. learn the
rhymes by listening, listen attentively to the stories, show attention through their LNF
responses to the resources e.g. question prompts and games
Listen to and carry out a two-step instruction e.g. follow the actions in a rhyme,
follow instructions to use the games AoL
Follow simple action words, e.g. through games and songs e.g. join in with the
actions in the rhymes AoL
Listen and join in with songs, rhymes and stories e.g. listening, joining in with
rhymes (whole or in part), responding to stories by anticipating what comes next LNF
In simple terms, retell a story or information they have heard e.g. retell the
stories in simple language LNF
Answer simple ‘Who?’, ‘What?’ and open-ended questions relating to own
experiences, stories or events e.g. respond to the Book Talk questions or the AoL
activities on the rhyme cards
Welsh-medium statement: imitate and use answers to questions using the
correct formats e.g. ask and answer simple questions about the books using the AoL
correct formats
Participate in discussions with other children and/or adults e.g. respond to the
questions in the resources, talk about what they did at home in Circle Time LNF
Take part in activities alongside others e.g. share the rhymes in a group, play
the games with other children or parents/carers LNF
NB Pori Drwy Stori Nursery can also support other areas of the Foundation Phase Framework,
especially reading skills.
