Description
This book, edited by Prue Goodwin, provides primary teachers with sound advice and practical suggestions about the teaching of literacy. With direct reference made to recent national initiatives in literacy teaching, each chapter takes an aspect of literacy and describes how theory is transformed into realistic learning experiences in the classroom.
The book includes chapters on learning to read and write: developing a knowledge about language: spelling and handwriting: and responding to literature. Some of the contributors have been actively involved in the production of materials for the National Literacy Strategy and others have acted as consultants to the agencies engaged in the government literacy initiatives.
The book is particularly suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate teacher education courses and for INSET work.
