`Jeni Riley and David Reedy share excellent examples of how primary
school children worked on a non-fiction text format.... A
well-informed book with a welcome dose of humour' - Nursery World
`The theoretical underpinning to this volume is rigorous and the
case studies are both endearing and informative' - Early Years `One
of the insights of social theories of language which is now taken
for granted is that language varies as the social context varies'
(Kress, 1997) This is a book that operationalizes this insight: it
charts young children's early attempts to write as they struggle to
communicate meaning for a variety of purposes. Each section deals
with the appropriate research evidence on the development of
children's competence in literacy, and their growing awareness of
genre, and uniquely, with a clear approach to teaching children
from three to seven years. The text combines the necessary
theoretical underpinning plus the day-to-day practical experience
of working with young children in order to develop their
understanding of the different forms and language of texts.
