Synopsis

The changing landscape of primary teaching requires trainees to consider learning and teaching in new ways. This book supports trainee teachers working towards primary Qts in teaching primary English across all areas of the curriculum. It takes a truly cross-curricular approach, highlighting meaningful links across the curriculum, and embraces the latest thinking and current good practice. It begins by examining English within the curriculum covering Eal, thinking skills and non-fiction text as well as language and literature. It goes on to look at teachers' effective use of English and their role in promoting English and considers other global perspectives.
