This is an essential guide to teaching primary English, with a focus on systematic synthetic phonics. The new edition has been fully revised and updated to reflect the structure, content and requirements of the national curriculum, and to include the latest policy context. Throughout, the range of underpinning literature has been expanded and there are completely new chapters on evidence based teaching in relation to phonics, reading for pleasure, and teaching English through texts. All the existing features have been retained, and each chapter now also includes:

  • a section on integrating ICT
  • extension questions to challenge M level readers
  • sections on evidence-based practice to encourage critical reflection and debate

The book is clear and explains well. It does have critical questions which helps offset the 'on message' tone of it.
