{"product_id":"9781412946070","title":"English for Primary and Early Years: Developing Subject Knowledge","description":"English for Primary and Early Years is a comprehensive and essential guide to the study of English. 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 Literacy Framework of the Primary National Strategy and includes an overview of early language development essential to early years practitioners. The book 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. 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIan Eyres is a Senior Lecturer in Education at The Open University  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SAGE Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47026819268848,"sku":"9781412946070","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781412946070","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
