The book covers the teaching of literacy to children aged 5-14, with the emphasis on 5-11. (The material for older students means that the book applies to middle schools as well as primaries). Each chapter shows how students/pupils can develop their own writing skills by learning from passages of great literature. Each section includes: passages from literature; teaching approaches; examples of children's work. The book is rooted in the classroom and practical in nature. The literary texts are in photocopiable format.
