Wholeheartedly recommended′ - Amazon Review      English for Primary and Early Years is a comprehensive and essential guide to the structure of English. It draws on the reader′s own knowledge and understanding of English as the basis for analysis of texts at word, sentence and whole text level. The book develops the reader′s understanding of the linguistic and literary knowledge required by The National Curriculum at Key Stages 1 and 2 and by the National Literacy Strategy. Key concepts such as, Standard English, approaches to grammar, genre, clause structure and the role of phonics in reading are addressed in an interactive way which develops the reader′s skills as an active analyst of English, leading to a far deeper understanding than the `do′s and don′ts′ of traditional grammar. The text is fully updated to include the most recent developments in such areas as synthetic and analytic phonics and multimodal texts. An in-depth self-assessment activity is included with the text.       This is a set book for the Open University Course, ′Ways of Knowing: language, mathematics and science in the early years′.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49510435094801,"sku":"GOR002790195","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50011937866001,"sku":"GOR003218994","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50114248704273,"sku":"GOR007036217","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52134738723089,"sku":"NLS9781412946087","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1412946085.jpg?v=1750857599"},{"product_id":"science-for-primary-and-early-years-book-jane-devereux-9781412946124","title":"Science for Primary and Early Years","description":"Science for Primary and Early Years is a comprehensive guide to the subject knowledge requirements for the teaching of science in  early years settings and primary schools.   This second edition consists of activities to help the reader extend their own understanding of science. Part One explores understanding the nature of science, processes of planning, carrying out and evaluating scientific investigations, collecting and using data, hypothesizing, predicting, fair testing, use of correct terminology and understanding health and safety as well as key ideas in science that underpin subject knowledge. Part Two builds on these ideas as it explores in more detail life and living processes, the environment, electricity and magnetism, light, sound and the earth in space.    This text is part of the series Developing Subject Knowledge which covers English, Mathematics and Science and provides authoritative distance learning materials on the national requirements for teaching the primary core curriculum, working with the early years and achieving qualified teacher status. It is designed for initial teacher training, experienced practitioner self-study, and will help towards GCSE revision.

In its new form it contains additional audit material to support trainee teachers.      The task-driven text emphasizes strategies and processes and is very different from the usual style of mathematics textbooks. Each of the sections is designed to stand alone so that they can be studied in any order. Trainees have reported that the material not only helped them to raise their knowledge and understanding to the required standard but also greatly improved their mathematical confidence.      Primary Mathematics is designed for self-study but the material can also been used as a resource for face-to-face and electronic and conferencing tuition. Important mathematical ideas are indexed and cross-referenced to emphasize connections within mathematics.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49626377027857,"sku":"GOR001276547","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0761971181.jpg?v=1751232953"},{"product_id":"english-for-primary-and-early-years-book-ian-eyres-9781412946070","title":"English for Primary and Early Years","description":"From a review of the first edition:    ′Ian Eyres tackles every issue of the teacher training curriculum for English making it accessible and easy to understand.
