Extending Literacy Summary

One of the most problematic areas in the teaching and development of literacy appears to concern childrens interactions with non-fiction books. Many surveys and reports have commented on the tendency for children to do little more than copy out sections of non-fiction texts. The Exeter Extending Literacy (EXEL) project was set up with the aim of exploring ways in which non-fiction might be used more effectively and profitably than this. In this book David Wray and Maureen Lewis outline the thinking behind the project and describe in detail the many useful teaching strategies and approaches which were developed in collaboration with primary teachers across the country. Teachers of children from 5 to 14 will find this book both a stimulating account of a very influential development project and a useful source of practical teaching ideas.
