A practical guide to the 'what', 'how', and 'why' of creative practice for teaching language and literacy in early years settings and classrooms. Based upon the research evidence, this book examines how young children learn to use spoken and written language, and shows how to teach and plan for effective speaking, listening and reading lessons.

Provides insights into young children's early attempts to communicate through writing for a variety of purposes, with practical teaching suggestions.

Combining theoretical and practical aspects of literacy, this text shows that informed practice can only develop from a genuine understanding of the literacy process. It charts how a young child progresses from a recognition of print and its purpose, to a state of fully developed fluent reading.
