Teaching Systematic Synthetic Phonics and Early English: Second Edition (Critical Teaching)

This essential guide to teaching primary English focuses on systematic synthetic phonics. The new edition has been fully revised and updated to reflect the structure, content, and requirements of the UK's national curriculum, and to include the latest policy context. The range of underpinning literature has been expanded throughout, and completely new chapters on evidence-based teaching in relation to phonics, reading for pleasure, and teaching English through texts is included. 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; and sections on evidence-based practice to encourage critical reflection and debate.
