explore pupils' understanding of language and meaning. Using
methods that are quite distinct from traditional literacy
activities, pupils' verbal skills are stretched to the full.
Question types covered include the following: alphabet and word
patterns, vocabulary, spelling, mathematical questions and problem
solving.
All the new Schofield & Sims dictionaries stand alone as
excellent sources of reference. Supporting the Primary Framework
for literacy, the dictionaries and word books widen children's
vocabulary and improve their reading and writing skills. They have
been carefully graded so that each builds on the earlier one - thus
providing a natural progression. The words included have been
carefully chosen to reflect contemporary usage and interests, and
also to provide full support for children as they explore classic
texts. The Schofield and Sims First Illustrated Dictionary:
contains more than 2000 headwords and definitions and over 500
colour illustrations, gives concise instructions on 'How to use
this book', provides short forms/irregular plurals/help with
pronunciation, reinforces knowledge of the alphabet by providing an
alphabet strip on each page, includes clear guide words indicating
the first and last headwords on each spread, provides lists of
colours/months of the year/days of the week/numbers and is
supported by the First Dictionary & Thesaurus Activities
(available separately).
This book is based on the evidence from research undertaken by the
authors over a number of years. The significance of these findings
to the treatment and prevention of low back pain are now widely
acknowledged, not only among researchers but also, and perhaps more
importantly, among practitioners concerned with the management and
prevention of back pain. In this new edition they have taken the
opportunity to extend the scope of the book to accommodate the most
recent evidence, which has emerged since the first edition was
published in 1999. This is an important book in that it not only
presents the evidence but also gives practical guidance on how the
findings may be applied in everyday practice. This new edition will
continue to provide an indispensable practical reference source for
all those working in the field of musculoskeletal pain and
dysfunction. * Written by 3 of the foremost researchers in the
