Teaching English Creatively encourages and enables teachers to adopt a more creative approach to the teaching of English in the primary school. Fully updated to reflect the changing UK curricula, the third edition of this popular text explores research-informed practice and offers new ideas to imaginatively engage readers, writers, speakers and listeners. Underpinned by up-to-date theory and research and illustrated throughout with more examples of children’s work, it examines the core elements of creative practice and how to explore powerful literary, non-fiction, visual and digital texts creatively. Key themes addressed include: • Developing creativity in and through talk and drama • Creatively engaging readers and writers • Teaching grammar and comprehension imaginatively and in context • Profiling meaning and purpose, autonomy, collaboration and play • Planning, reviewing and celebrating literacy learning • Ensuring the creative involvement of the teacher Inspiring, accessible and connected to current challenges and new priorities in education, Teaching English Creatively puts contemporary and cutting-edge practice at the forefront and includes a wealth of innovative ideas to enrich English teaching.
