English Handbook and Study Guide is a comprehensive English Reference book, invaluable to teachers, students and as home reference.
The intermediate phase is a critically important period in schooling, when most learners make the transition from learning in their home language to using English as the language of learning and teaching. Learners and teachers find it a daunting time. There are language and literacy challenges in learning English as a
subject, in addition to the linguistic complexities of classrooms in urban areas. Recent research has indicated that many intermediate phase learners are also still not fluent readers. Teaching English: As A First Additional Language In The Intermediate And Senior Phase will support teachers in overcoming these
classroom challenges.
The book starts by exploring who the Intermediate and Senior Phase learner is – physically, socially, emotionally and cognitively – and then focuses on the skills of reading and viewing, writing, and speaking and listening.
In addition, the text:
- explains the supporting role the home language can play in learning an additional language
- provides strategies for integrating language skills in a second-language classroom
- includes examples of how language teaching can be extended across all curriculum subjects
- explores ways in which assessment can be used to support students’ learning
- focuses on the use of information and communication technologies in the language classroom
Teaching English: As A First Additional Language In The Intermediate And Senior Phase is suitable for preservice teachers completing a BEd or a PGCE. In-service teachers will also find it useful.
The Oxford English Dictionary for Schools is easy to use with clear
signposting, accessible design, and expertly levelled definitions
and examples, making it the perfect language resource for school
work and studying at home. It has been updated extensively to
include even more KS3 curriculum vocabulary and is ideal for
students preparing for GCSEs and other exams. New words and phrases
include cloud computing, coronavirus, mental health, podcast, web
developer and zero carbon. It is powered by the Oxford Children's
Corpus, a unique electronic database of millions of words written
by and for children, which means that the vocabulary is presented
in a way that is both accessible and stretching. There are also
lots of additional features to support students acquiring a broader
vocabulary, such as language panels for project work, related words
and antonyms, usage notes for confusable words, and interesting
word origins. It also contains real example sentences from the best
children's books and teenage fiction, which show students how to
use language effectively. There are inspiring examples from authors
such as David Almond, Philip Pullman, William Golding, Anthony
Horowitz, Beverley Naidoo, and many more from the curriculum
reading lists. Free downloadable learning resources, word games,
puzzles, and much more are available for additional online support
at www.oxforddictionaries.com/schools.

- Highlights in the text, with a side-panel modelling the teaching strategy and highlighting key points in the text for application.
- Key words are provided to display and use in the introductory discussion.
- Worksheets with comprehension activities based on the story are added to the end of the guide
