Reviews / Votes
Topics in this helpful book include: Babies and very early communication; the importance of role-play corners; outdoor learning and literacy; how rhyme and repetition helps to develop literacy; teaching literacy to children who have English as an additional language; literacy and diversity; using picture books to develop literacy; supporting transitions and different approaches to the teaching of phonics and early reading. -- Martine Horvath The chapters in this book present a combination of evidence-based discussions which are then illuminated by practice-based case studies and research. This carefully balanced approach allows for some of the current issues which surround literacy to be explored from diverse perspectives. The chapters are organised within four main themes: 'Environment', 'Provision for all', Promoting language' and 'Inspiring readers and writers'. This thoughtfully considered construction allows for the chapters to be read in any order, depending on the reader's needs, or interests... Opportunities to reflect on the case studies are encouraged throughout the book, thus inviting constructive dialogues which would not only support students' development and understanding, but could also be of interest to all primary teaching professionals. -- Tracy ParvinMore details
