Opis

English 5-11 provides up to date and creative guidance on teaching English in the primary school. Written by highly experienced authors and former government advisors with frontline teaching, school management and teacher training experience, each manageable chapter provides the busy teacher with indispensable advice and guidance as well as opportunities to reflect upon current practice in the classroom. Fully updated, this third edition reflects changes in government policy and gives greater attention to spelling, grammar and punctuation, systematic synthetic phonics, drama and Standard English, assessment and is closely related to the changing curriculum. English 5-11 will be an invaluable resource to all trainee and practising teachers interested in teaching English in a contemporary and dynamic way.
