Opis

This book focuses on a critical period for pupils between the ages of nine and 13 when the demands made on children's literacy change fundamentally, and when children establish life-time patterns of reading and non-reading. At this stage it is crucially important that literacy is viewed as a central part of the curriculum, but many schools find it difficult to manage and support literacy teaching across a range of subjects.
