Texts, topics and tasks : teaching english in years 4-6
While providing a solid theoretical and research-based foundation, the book is also practical. Texts, Topics and Tasks advocates clear structures in language teaching: explicit models for working with texts, a combination of function and form, and tasks that incorporate different dimensions of language learning. It also promotes a socially-supportive learning environment, where pupils are guided by a sense of confidence, participation and cooperation.
Texts, Topics and Tasks is aimed at student teachers and teachers who focus on years 4–6 in their education or teaching, but the book will also be of interest to K–3 teachers.
