Sue Palmer and Pie Corbett are the best-known names in Primary Literacy. This book distils their vast experience, and the experience of five years of the Literacy Strategy, to provide a must-have collection of teaching tips and ideas.

This text is simple and self explanatory with golden rules for success in the classroom. It offers practical guidance on what works now as well as looking to the future, and includes photocopiable resource sheets. Both a Teacher Resource and Professional Development tool, it presents comments on all the latest thinking, good and bad, and on Primary Strategy. It also provides controversial and thought-provoking insight into making literacy teaching work.
