The National Literacy Strategy is at the heart of the government drive to raise the standards in literacy in schools. Based on a research project conducted in classrooms during the first year of the National Literacy Strategy (NLS), this book provides a practical analysis of the ways in which successful teachers have implemented the Literacy Hour. Taking a reflective approach, it chronicles how teachers have changed their attitudes and practice over the first year, and questions why these changes have occurred. With various descriptions of teachers' practice and examples of children's writing throughout, this is an in-depth, yet down-to-earth reflective analysis of effective literacy teaching. Ros Fisher looks in detail at issues such as; improving the teaching of literacy; researching classroom practice; children's learning in the Literacy Hour; changing practice at Key Stage One and Two and mixed age classes and literacy for four-year-olds.

Teaching children to develop as language users is an important task of the primary teacher, since it is through the use of language skills that children gain access to and communicate thoughts and ideas across the curriculum. By exploring the relationship between text types, syntax, vocabulary and phonics, the author of this work illustrates how language is used for different purposes.

This book provides a unique description of teacher-pupil interaction during the Literacy Hour in good schools. It is based on detailed observations in inner-city primary schools that were recognised as effective and improving. The analysis is informed by contemporary research into the development and teaching of early literacy. 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 analysis begins within the classrooms of three expert Key Stage 1 teachers and broadens out in to the wider setting of the schools and their senior management teams. An important theme running throughout the book is how the three teachers were able to make exceptional provision for their pupils, who were largely second language speakers and from socio-economically disadvantaged groups. The teachers’ successful practice grew from their understanding of both early literacy development and planning for individual need. The information in this book will enable student teachers, recently qualified teachers, and teachers interested in enhancing their literacy teaching to develop their practice in a similarly successful way.

This document details the National Literacy Strategy, a framework for primary school teachers in England helping their students master basic literacy skills in order to reach national literacy standards. This framework sets out teaching objectives from Reception to Year 6 to enable students to become fully literate. The framework is intended for daily reference by classroom teachers to ensure that they have appropriately high expectations for their students, understand how students will progress through primary school, and offer a balance between reading and writing and different kinds of texts. The framework is presented in three sections. Section 1 defines the components of literacy, details the structure of the framework, describes the teaching methods used to teach literacy during the "Literacy Hour," and discusses how medium- and short-term planning emerge from the framework. Section 2 delineates the teaching objectives for word level work (phonics, spelling, vocabulary), sentence level work (grammar, punctuation), and text level work (comprehension, composition) over each term during primary school. Section 3 is comprised of appendices containing planning sheets, a list of high frequency "sight recognition" words for Years Reception-2, a list of medium frequency words to be taught in Years 4 and 5, a summary of specific phonics and spelling work to be covered in Years Reception-2, a summary of the range of work for each term, a technical vocabulary list, and a glossary of terms used in the framework.

Raising Standards in Literacy represents the best current thinking and research about literacy. The book is the outcome of a high-profile series of seminars on raising standards in literacy, and includes contributions from an impressive group of international researchers and policymakers. By offering a rich and unique mix of contemporary perspectives on literacy education, this book provides an invaluable source of study and insight into the latest research and developments in the teaching of literacy. It includes sections on: * how research into literacy teaching can inform new approaches found in England, the USA and Australia * the ways in which literacy education is developing in England, the USA and Australia * the issues involved in assessing progress in literacy and the validity of research claims made about standards of attainment. The book celebrates the apparent success of current literacy initiatives at the same time as raising questions about the feasibility and relevance of such initiatives to the literacy co-ordinators and consultants and for all those undertaking further study or research in literacy education.
