This book provides some challangin questions which are examined in
the light of authentic classroom experience. For any learner,
literacy is of crucial importance. For teachers, raising standards
of literacy is a constant concern. The first two sections of the
book consider two important questions: What does children's writing
reveal about their reading experience and competence?, and How can
teachers help children to become more careful and critical readers
of their own and other people's writing. In the third section of
the book these questions are put in a theoretical framework which
tackles some of the more fundamental issues of culture, language
diversity and gender, the relationship between oracy and literacy
and how best to help children who struggle with literacy. The final
section gives some practical guidance for developing a full and
successful literacy curriculum. Eve Bearne is Senior Lecturer in
English and Education at Homerton College, Cambridge.
