Review

'This book provides accessible practical guidance, reflective activities, a range of comprehensive research and some extremely useful summaries of the historical and political debates which have featured since the 1960s on the teaching of reading, writing and the place and value of talk, for example.' - NATE

From the Back Cover

In line with the Primary National Strategy, this core introductory textbook provides comprehensive, up-to-date and most importantly, creative guidance on teaching English in the early years and primary classroom. It includes links to the renewed Framework for Literacy and Mathematics and Communication Language and Literacy in the Early Years Foundation Stage. Covering all of the key curriculum areas in manageable and accessible chapters, English 3-11 contains numerous activities and practical advice which will help motivate and support teachers to achieve enjoyment, progression, breadth and balance in their teaching of effective and creative English. Key topics covered include:

  • The effective teaching of early reading, including the implications of the Rose Review
  • Assessment for learning
  • Co-operative learning
  • Multi-modal texts
  • ICT and English

By combining subject knowledge with effective pedagogical approaches to teaching English, this book is an essential and thought-provoking one-stop resource for all busy trainee and practising teachers, encouraging reflection and debate on current teaching methods.
