Primary English

by Ian Eyres

Primary English is a comprehensive and essential guide to the structure of English. It draws on the reader′s own knowledge and understanding of English as the basis for analysis of texts at word, sentence and whole text level. The book develops the readers understanding of the linguistic and literary knowledge required by the National Curriculum at Key Stages 1 and 2 and by the National Literacy Strategy. Key concepts such as, Standard English, approaches to grammar, genre, clause structure and the role of phonics in reading are addressed in an interactive way which develops the readers skills as an active analyst of English, leading to a far deeper understanding than the do′s and don′ts.
