Big Cat Phonics for Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Revised has
been developed in collaboration with Wandle Learning Trust and
Little Sutton Primary School. It comprises classroom resources to
support the SSP programme and a range of phonic readers that
together provide a consistent and highly effective approach to
teaching phonics. A little girl paints a door into the fairytale
world, and as she walks she finds items that familiar characters
have dropped. Will she be able to give their lost items back? This
beautiful wordless book was written by Emily Guille-Marrett and
Charlotte Raby. Pages 14 and 15 contain an "I Spy" feature, which
uses visual support to help children explore the themes and sounds
contained within the book. Reading notes within the book provide
practical support for reading with children, including a list of
all the sounds and words that the book will cover.
The interdependent coach-athlete relationship represents the most
fundamental instance of a duty of care in sport. This book defines,
analyses and clarifies the duty of care incumbent upon sports
coaches and identifies important recommendations of real-world
significance for coaching practice. Given the dynamic relationship
between coaching, sport and the law, it is imperative that coaches
have an informed awareness of the evolving legal context in which
they discharge their duty of care. Detailed analysis of a coach's
duty of care has so far been lacking. The book addresses this gap
by being the first to critically scrutinise the concept of duty of
care in the specific context of sports coaching. Sustained analysis
of the developing case law allows the scope and boundaries of the
particular duties demanded of coaches to be rigorously examined.
The legal principles and court decisions discussed relate to
coaching delivered in a wide range of individual and team sports,
at both amateur and professional levels of performance, and include
common scenarios and challenges frequently encountered by sports
coaches globally. By adopting an interdisciplinary approach within
a broader sociolegal methodological framework, this book's detailed
analysis and original insights will prove highly instructive for
practising coaches, coach educators, and national governing bodies
of sport. It also offers extremely valuable insights for students,
teachers and practitioners involved in sports law, sports coaching,
sports ethics, tort law, sports policy and development, sports
studies and physical education.

The application of the theoretical underpinnings of coaching to
practice is a central concern in sport. How should academic
research seek to inform applied practice, and how should practising
coaches integrate research into their professional activities?
Sports Coaching: A Theoretical and Practical Guide is the first
book to truly integrate academic research on sports coaching with
an assessment of and recommendations for applied practice. With
every chapter written by a coaching researcher and a practising
coach, the book clearly and concisely introduces the academic
evidence base and discusses how and why theory should be integrated
into practice. Made up of sections on coaching practice, coach
education and development, the use of sport science support and
coaching special populations, the book constitutes a comprehensive
guide to the theory and practice of sports coaching. Chapters are
clearly and consistently structured, allowing students and coaches
opportunity to gain a firm understanding of the core theoretical
principles of sports coaching and the ways in which they can guide
practice. The book is a vital resource for any sports coaching
student, researcher or practitioner to develop their
evidence-informed practice.

This accessible introductory textbook looks at the modern
relationship between politicians, the press and the public through
the language they employ, with extensive coverage of key topics
including: 'spin', 'spin control' and 'image' politics models of
persuasion: authority, contrast, association pseudo-logical and
'post-truth' arguments political interviewing: difficult questions,
difficult answers metaphors and metonymy rhetorical figures humour,
irony and satire Extracts from speeches, soundbites, newspapers and
blogs, interviews, press conferences, election slogans, social
media and satires are used to provide the reader with the tools to
discover the beliefs, character and hidden strategies of the
would-be persuader, as well as the counter-strategies of their
targets. This book demonstrates how the study of language use can
help us appreciate, exploit and protect ourselves from the art of
persuasion. With a wide variety of practical examples on both
recent issues and historically significant ones, every topic is
complemented with guiding tasks, queries and exercises with keys
and commentaries at the end of each unit. This is the ideal
textbook for all introductory courses on language and politics,
media language, rhetoric and persuasion, discourse studies and
related areas.

The Linguistics of Laughter examines what speakers try to achieve
by producing 'laughter-talk' (the talk preceding and eliciting an
episode of laughter) and, by using abundant examples from language
corpora, what hearers are signalling when they produce laughter. In
particular, Alan Partington focuses on the tactical use of
laughter-talk to achieve specific rhetorical, and strategic, ends:
for example, to construct an identity, to make an argumentative
point, to threaten someone else's face or save one's own. Although
laughter and humour are by no means always related, the book also
considers the implications these corpus-based observations may have
about humour theory in general. As one of the first works to have
recourse to such a sizeable databank of examples of laughter in
spontaneous running talk, this impressive volume is an essential
point of reference and an inspiration for scholars with an interest
in corpus linguistics, discourse, humour, wordplay, irony and
laughter-talk as a social phenomenon.
Governors are a valuable but under-used asset to independent
schools. Under the day-to-day pressures of running schools, they
are too often sidelined, yet are frequently called to account by
parents and the media when things go wrong. Both new and
experienced governors of independent schools will welcome this
lively and informative handbook, originally published in 1998,
which describes the positive and constructive role which governing
bodies can play in the life of their schools. It provides
up-to-date management techniques which can be effectively applied
to enhance the quality of education and thereby the attractiveness
of schools to parents and students.

This book examines the relationship between the White House, in the person of its press secretary, and the press corps through a linguistic analysis of the language used by both sides. A corpus was compiled of around fifty press briefings from the late Clinton years. A wide range of topics are discussed from the Kosovo crisis to the Clinton-Lewinsky affair. This work is highly original in demonstrating how concordance technology and the detailed linguistic evidence available in corpora can be used to study discourse features of text and the communicative strategies of speakers. It will be of vital interest to all linguists interested in corpus-based linguistics and pragmatics, as well as sociolinguists and students and scholars of communications, politics and the media. eBook available with sample pages: 0203218256
