Primary English Teaching

Primary English Teaching is a comprehensive introduction to language, literacy and learning in primary school, exploring the theoretical issues that underpin pedagogical practice in the primary English language classroom. Using theory snapshots, task boxes and teaching ideas, it helps students not only understand the theory but also translate it into good practice.

The contributors explore new initiatives in primary language teaching, putting these into their theoretical context and offering practical ideas, to help students make the bridge from studying to be a teacher, through starting their teaching career. Diversity and aspects of special educational needs are also considered throughout.
