The book includes new subject knowledge, such as understanding the linguistic features of different text types, and the need to find authentic reading material; practical classroom examples; high-quality photocopiable texts and activity sheets; and detailed guidance on how to work with the material at text, sentence and word level. Each chapter consists of a description of the genre, a text example, a photocopiable double-page spread giving an annotated version of the text, details of the classroom resources for developing the ideas and activity sheets for each text. The book will appeal to all teachers and student teachers working at Key Stages 1 and 2, English and Literacy advisers in LEAs, and providers of initial and in-service training.

The Exeter Extending Literacy (EXEL) project was set up to explorehow non-fiction might be used in more effective and profitable ways. Wray and Lewis outline the project theories and describe the many useful teaching strategies and approaches developed in collaboration with primary teachers.
