Reading on! : developing reading at Key Stage 2

Once children master the skills of reading and choose to read silently, teachers are often uncertain how to develop their reading further.

This means that many children do not move on from being surface readers who read for the story alone, and fail to respond to other aspects of reading.This book provides teachers with support, showing ways in which they can help children who can already read become critical and competent readers of all types of texts.

It includes many practical examples across the genres of fiction, non-fiction, poetry, drama and multi-media resources including ways to read texts in different situations and guidance on assessment and differentation.The contributors are Suzi Clipson-Boyles (Oxford Brookes University), Jenny Monk (Westminster College, Oxford) and Sylvia Karavis (Oxfordshire Advisory English Team).
