It is clear that these assistants need some very practical materials. This book provides photocopiable resources so that classroom assistants can get to work. The book covers all they need to know about literacy, it explains in very simple terms what is expected from them and: *how the National Literacy Strategy works *how to support reading, writing and spelling *how to select fiction and non-fiction *how to help children use computers It also covers issues such as: *how to help children for whom English is not their first language *how to help children with special needs *how to set targets and monitor progress. As well as providing an invaluable manual for assistants, Supporting Literacy will be useful for SENCOs and English Co-ordinators who are training support staff and volunteers in primary schools. Learning Support Assistants and others following recognised courses (eg Specialist Teacher's Assistants) will find the book helpful in the study of children's literacy.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49561804374289,"sku":"GOR004560337","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52521541468433,"sku":"NLS9780415228183","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0415228182.jpg?v=1751165780"},{"product_id":"national-curriculum-level-2-3-activities-based-on-tyrone-the-horrible-and-other-book-kate-grant-9780439018289","title":"National Curriculum Level 2-3 Activities Based on \"Tyrone the Horrible\" and Other Texts","description":"Special Needs Literacy is a series of fully photocopiable teacher's books.

For example, texts in the Year 3 book have a range and genre appropriate to Y3 but these are matched with Level 2 activities (for Y4 the Level is 2\/3 and for Y5, Level 3). The target level and Framework objectives covered by each book are clearly stated on the cover so that teachers can choose as apprropriate for their needs; *suggestions for homework tasks. Fifteen of the 20-minute sessions are supported by three different reading books. The titles chosen are well-known and widely available - and may well be books that teachers already have in school. The reamining 15 sessions are supported by photocopiable text extracts to ensure appropriate genre cover. The units in this book are based on the following children's books: 'Tyrone the Horrible' by Hans Wilhelm, 'My Friend Mr Morris' by Pat Thomson, 'The Julian Stories' by Ann Cameron; and on the following photocopiable texts provided in this book: 'The Owl and the Pussycat' by Edward Lear (poem). 'Baby Animals' from 'I Wonder Why Kangaroos have Pouches?' by Jenny Wood (non-fiction). 'The Sun and the Moon in the Sky' (explanation).","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49601487601937,"sku":"GOR004710033","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0439018285.jpg?v=1751292928"},{"product_id":"national-curriculum-level-3-activities-based-on-clever-cakes-and-other-texts-book-kate-grant-9780439018296","title":"National Curriculum Level 3 Activities Based on Clever Cakes and Other Texts","description":"Part of a series of photocopiable teachers' books that aim to meet the need for differentiated teaching resources for use during group time of Literacy Hour.

On a visit to the Addis Ababa Fistula Hospital, in the Ethiopian capital, she finds her way. Bed after bed contains young women suffering from obstetric fistula, a childbirth injury that when untreated left women incontinent and too often relegated to life as modern-day lepers. The only cure: surgery. In NO WOMAN LEFT BEHIND, Grant chronicles her journey, growing Fistula Foundation from a small start-up to global leader in fistula treatment, becoming 'The Smile Train of Vaginas,' helping more than 100,000 women in 30 countries get the priceless gift of health. Inspired by doctors like DR Congo's Dr. Denis Mukwege, Grant focuses on empowering African and Asian doctors, gaining vital support from an empathetic army of donors in nearly 70 countries. NO WOMAN LEFT BEHIND is a call to action. Grant invites readers to join a growing global community committed to enabling some of the world's most vulnerable women to control their bodies and their destinies. 100% of the net proceeds from NO WOMAN LEFT BEHIND will go to Fistula Foundation's Love-a-Sister program to fund free surgeries for women with childbirth injuries.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51631251357969,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51631251554577,"sku":"NGR9781647428976","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51704791171345,"sku":"CIN1647428971G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52076035113233,"sku":"CIN1647428971VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52400312353041,"sku":"GOR014517998","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52499246055697,"sku":"NIN9781647428976","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1647428971.jpg?v=1755302480"},{"product_id":"no-woman-left-behind-book-kate-grant-9781647426705","title":"No Woman Left Behind","description":"\u003cb\u003eNOW A\u003ci\u003eUSA TODAY\u003c\/i\u003e BESTSELLER\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e INSPIRATION FOR HOW TO CREATE A LIFE OF PURPOSE, \u003ci\u003eNO WOMAN LEFT BEHIND\u003c\/i\u003e IS THE UNLIKELY STORY OF HOW ONE WOMAN LEAVES MADISON AVENUE AND TACKLES THE GLOBAL MATERNAL HEALTH CRISIS HEAD ON--PREFACED BY A POWERFUL FOREWORD BY BEST-SELLING AUTHOR ABRAHAM VERGHESE. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e2025 International Book Award Winner in Autobiography\/Memoir\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \"In this rousing debut, Grant demonstrates how the faith and actions of a small group of people can save the world.\"\u003cb\u003e--BookLife Reviews, Editor's Pick\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \"A call to action for compassionate advocates, and a stunning tale of how deeds triumph over platitudes.\"\u003cb\u003e--Dr. Denis Mukwege, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The day a woman gives birth is also the day she is most likely to die or suffer severe injury--a sobering reality that comes into sharp focus when Kate Grant visits the Addis Ababa Fistula Hospital in Ethiopia's capital.
