This second edition adds to the original ideas in Geoff Dean's first book and includes new methods of teaching reading, including "guided reading" and using increased grammatical student knowledge.
This text supplements the training currently being offered to all secondary English departments. It offers a view of the place of the English "strand" in the overall Key Stage 3 strategy and gives support to English departments in their preparations for a new way of working.
Dean shows teachers how to recognize and support children who show advanced skills in reading and writing, and explores effective ways in which these pupils can be assisted to develop linguistically.
Exploring how teachers can improve the way they plan their lessons, this book discusses how theories and research from leading experts can be applied in the classroom. It also features an examination of learning for children of different abilities.
