1.Jumpstart!: Literacy - Games and Activities for Ages 7-14 by: Pie Corbett November 01, 2003
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £10.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £7.69 You Save: £3.30 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £7.00
I love it! The children in my class love it! It is full of literacy starters and games to get children thinking. It fits really well with the Ros Wilson 2020 / Big Writing and the Literacy Hour. I wouldn't be without it.

2.Usborne Guide to Better English: Grammar, Spelling and Punctuation (Better English) by: R. Gee January 30, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £8.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.74 You Save: £2.25 (25%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £4.00
This is a very comprehensive and easy to read guide on basic grammar, spelling and punctuation. The text is laid out in a manner that is clear with pictures to demonstrate the wording. As someone who cannot remember being taught most grammar and punctuation, this has been the easiest to read and the most concise book that I have found relating to grammar, spelling and punctuation. I thoroughly reccommend this book to anyone who needs to re learn, to understand and fill in the gaps in their knowledge in this area.

3.Why Not Catch-21?: The Stories Behind the Titles: 0 by: Gary Dexter September 23, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £7.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.79 You Save: £3.20 (40%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £6.77
The title should be why not Catch 18, as it is made clear that that was the number chosen by Heller as a title up until the publisher with deeper thinking and subtlty gave us the title which became a well known (and according to Heller) misused phrase. That is one of the high points of this ragtag colllection of titular explanantions. One should ask: Why not Lord of the Hobbits? or Catcher in the Maize? These books however, are not included. What is her eis only that which has a story behind it. At least a partly verifiable story. It is a mine of (useless) information. The pseudonymes of the 3 Bronte sisters and their first book of published poems and when they died, and some of their influences are all to be found in one chapter. Then ... Read More:

4.GCSE English: Writing Skills by: Richard Parsons November 19, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £4.50 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.00 You Save: £0.50 (11%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £0.01
This book is quite light-hearted, and as another review says, probably contains everything you need to pass- get a C grade. It doesn't, however, contain the information i would personally say you need for the A*-B Therefore is better for foundation. I have now bought the York Notes revision book, which is much better for higher grades!!!

6.Reading Under Control: Teaching Reading in the Primary School by: Judith Graham, Alison Kelly September 26, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £17.00 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £15.30 You Save: £1.70 (10%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £12.98
I'm in my 1st year of a teaching degree and I found this book the most helpful and easy to read of those suggested to us. It gives you so many ideas, especially on how to diagnose different childrens problems with reading and practical suggestions on how to deal with them. I think it would come in useful to both trainee teachers and those already in practice as it is so much easier to read than most other texts on the subject. The accompanying book 'Writing Under Control' is just as helpful.

I found this book very informative on implementing good language and literacy practice in the classroom. With all the changes in the curriculum, the research is up to date making it an invaluable resouce for especially the student teacher covering policy and practice with plenty of suggestions for further reading. It is focused on how the child learns and how to teach language and literacy in an interesting and successful way. There are plenty of case studies and practical examples for implementing good practice making it relevant for qualified teachers as much as students. An excellent book for all those with an interest in language and literacy in Early Years and Key Stage 1 settings.
