The most comprehensive literacy text for pre-service teachers.

Literacy: Reading, Writing and Children's Literature, sixth edition, is the most comprehensive text for pre-service teachers to learn how to teach literacy. It covers the whole literacy curriculum: reading, writing, speaking, listening and viewing, and illustrates how pre-service teachers can use theory in their classrooms.

This new edition has been completely revised and streamlined to create stronger links from education to professional practice. It reflects the changing nature of literacy in the modern world and the impact of technology on teaching and learning. This accessible text is rich with practical examples, classroom scenarios, and revision questions to help readers put theory into practice. Teaching examples highlight effective assessment practices and demonstrate how to teach to a range of learning abilities from beginner through to accomplished.
