Planning Primary English

How to Design and Teach Brilliant Lessons

By: Kirstie Hewett

Effective lesson planning is a crucial skill for all primary school teachers and is key to fostering engaging and focused learning. So how can new teachers ensure that their plans are motivating and impactful so that their students can make good progress? This book serves as a comprehensive roadmap for planning dynamic and effective English lessons and clearly explains key principles and concepts that underpin effective teaching in all aspects of the primary English curriculum. Covering a wide range of topics, this book discusses how to plan compelling lessons on teaching phonics, comprehension, grammar, spoken language and more, as well as adaptive teaching for an inclusive classroom. It identifies the key decisions new teachers, who are planning their own lessons for the first time, must consider to execute well-structured lessons and suggests how these can be tailored to meet the needs of all learners. Whether you′re on a university-based path (PGCE, BEd, BA with QTS) or exploring school-based routes (School Direct, SCITT, Teach First), or an Early Career Teacher, this book is essential reading to transforming lesson planning from a challenge into a creative and effective teaching tool. Kirstie Hewett is a senior lecturer in primary English at the University of Chichester.

Show and Tell, Level 3

By: Gabby Pritchard,Kirstie Grainger,Margaret Whitfield

Creating young thinkers with great futures.Show and Tell taps into children's natural curiosity, asking a question such as "who makes you happy?" or "what do our senses tell us?" as the focus for each unit. Activities encourage children to explore the question while learning the language they need to think and talk about it. End-of-unitclass projects consolidate learning and encourage children to work collaboratively. Opportunities to "Show and Tell" allow them to present their projects in class or at home, and to talk about what they have learned - in English!Stories, hand-eye coordination practice and letter formation activities lead to reading and writing simple sentences. Problem-solving activities encourage children to think critically and creatively. Values lessons teach children how to behave both inside and outside the classroom.

First Friends

By: Kirstie Grainger,Susan Iannuzzi

We all know that kindergarten is such a key year - it shapes children's attitudes to learning and English for years to come. You are also teaching something incredibly important - reading. First Friends is here to help. The phonics progression is very important, and has been designed especially for children who do not use the Roman alphabet. The pacing and order of the letters has all been carefully researched. The handy alphabet, at the top of every phonics page, highlights the letter you're studying so learners can see their progress, and all the letters are taught in upper and lower case. But that's not all - the catchy phonics chants, colourful Alphabet poster and interactive digital material make your lessons even more motivating and fun, ensuring happy learners. Parents will also appreciate the Audio CD with songs, chants, and stories to practise at home ... So, with a reliable structure, rich resources, and a successful methodology, First Friends is the ideal course for you. Try it, and you'll soon see why it's first for English and first for fun!
