Overview

"Designed for practising and student teachers working with a wide range of narrative fiction in infant and junior classrooms, this text highlights the creative and expressive aspects of children's engagement with literature and provides Literacy Hour projects for each age group. It is written in the context of National Curriculum English at Key Stages 1 and 2 and with full attention paid to the National Literacy Framework. The authors show how storytelling, drama and the arts can be used to bring texts to life, making the acquisition of literacy skills a more enriching and enduring experience. This text is a companion to ""Teaching Poetry in the Primary School"" by the same author."
