| Summary |
"The book provides practice-based examples of how teachers and schools might adapt their delivery for literacy as they move to greater creativity in their teaching of reading and writing. The reader is provided with background commentary and research underpinning the teaching of literacy in English primary schools. This is then correlated to microanalysis of the classroom practice of three expert teachers, and discussion of the effective features of their school settings."--BOOK JACKET |
