Experiencing English Literature: Shaping Authentic Student Response in Thinking and Writing (National Association for the Teaching of English NATE)
What does it mean to experience a work of literature? What role does response play in the creation of literary meaning? And what matters – really matters – in the teaching of English Literature? In this book, Andrew Atherton offers a powerful and timely account of the vital role that student response plays in the English Literature classroom.
This text is deeply immersed in the disciplinary traditions and legacies of what it has meant to experience English Literature, both for its teachers and students. As the English teaching community try to move beyond exam-driven responses, highly restrictive essay structures and explicit teaching of interpretation, this innovative text helps teachers to encourage responses from students that are more authentic and co-constructed. It contains dedicated chapters for teaching novels, plays and poetry as well as generative writing, sentence-level analysis and essay structure. Each chapter is furnished with a wealth of ideas, routines and activities, all ready to be embedded directly into the classroom. This book will play a key role in this continuing rejuvenation of an experience of English Literature that places a premium on student response and how to shape it.
Experiencing English Literature remains actionable and practical, written first and foremost for teachers. It will be essential reading for any KS3/4/5 teacher of English Literature as well as Senior Leaders seeking to better understand the disciplinary traditions of English Literature.

EYFS: Language of Learning – a handbook to provoke, provide and evaluate language development
Early language deficits affect too many pupils on entry to nursery, reception and school settings, negatively impacting not only children’s engagement with curriculum content, but also their self-regulation and mental health. Drawing on Joan Tough’s research and inspiration, Alex Bedford has reignited and reimagined her systematic language development framework, so that every child in an early years setting has the opportunity to build a love of language that radiates understanding, excellence, ambition and clarity.
Co-authored by Julie Sherrington, EYFS: Language of Learning explains the vital influence that physical development has on vocabulary development. The book offers practical guidance on what language development is, what to look for and how to provide support. Important cognitive and neuroscience research is clearly explained to help school settings embed the best of what we know about how children learn.
EYFS: Language of Learning gives teachers and practitioners a holistic, accessible and powerful toolkit. Alex and Julie’s brilliant worked examples showcase how the language development framework can offer precision and progression within the learning conversation. The book directly complements the ShREC approach and provides clear guidance on how to develop conversations using evidence-informed frameworks.

Hooked on Books: Transforming the Teaching of Reading
Transform the teaching of reading to primary pupils! In this book, Jane Considine reveals her structured, rigorous system for teaching reading. Reading is a typical stumbling block for children. In order to get to grips with literacy and comprehension, primary school children of all attainment levels will benefit from Hooked on Books’ revolutionary methods. In this 250-page book, Jane Considine builds on the English National Curriculum objectives for whole class teaching with activities, exercises and teaching methods based on a whole framework for unlocking the teaching of reading and comprehension. Key aspects of the Hooked On Books framework include: Book Talk – A whole class comprehension and targeted group approach to teaching reading, ensuring pupils of all levels participate. The Reading Rainbow – A fully encompassing approach that targets reading competencies, covers the English National Curriculum and develops understanding. Demonstration Reading – The process of teachers modelling the internal thinking of a reader. This is to demonstrate how a reader thinks during the process of ‘reading for meaning’ and how they internalise and understand. Demonstration Comprehension – The process of clear, out-loud thinking by the teacher while modelling answers to questions and showcasing ‘thesaurus thinking’ to ensure the most precise words are used. Jane Considine is an experienced educational practitioner and author of revolutionary learning resources with over 25 years in education consultancy. “Book talk” is the jewel in the crown of our whole-school reading strategy. It supports and challenges the children’s understanding and comprehension of texts, enabling them to become inspired, confident and enthusiastic readers.” – Darren Smith, Head TeacherRead more

How to Teach Computer Science: Parable, practice and pedagogy
This book is for new or aspiring computer science teachers wishing to improve their subject knowledge and gain confidence in the classroom. And it’s for experienced computer science teachers who wish to hone their practice, in particular in the areas of explicit instruction, tackling misconceptions and exploring pedagogical content knowledge.
You will read some of the backstory to our subject – the “hinterland” – those fascinating journeys into history that make the subject come alive and place it in historical context. These stories will help you to enrich your lessons, cement core knowledge, develop cultural capital and help you excite a life-long love for the subject. We will go beyond the mark scheme to explore the subject knowledge behind the answers, giving you the confidence to discuss the field in greater depth, enabling you to use explicit instruction methods: presenting skills and concepts clearly and directly enabling student mastery.
We will explore misconceptions that arise when teaching our subject, so you can “head them off at the pass”. And we will look at teaching ideas – the pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) – exploring the helpful analogies, questions and activities that work for each topic: practices that can be lifted and dropped straight into the classroom to immediately enhance your teaching.
Trainee or pre-service teachers, NQTs and early-career teachers will find this book invaluable, experienced teachers will find it inspiring, and all will benefit from a fresh look at the hinterland and subject pedagogy that makes computer science a fascinating subject to teach.

I Heard What You Said: A Black Teacher, A White System
A thought-provoking and fearless exploration of how we can dismantle racism in the classroom and do better by all our students.
An Amazon Best Non-Fiction Book of The Year

_____Before Jeffrey Boakye was a black teacher, he was a black student. Which means he has spent a lifetime navigating places of learning that are white by default. Since training to teach, he has often been the only black teacher at school. At times seen as a role model, at others a source of curiosity, Boakye’s is a journey of exploration – from the outside looking in.
In the groundbreaking I Heard What You Said, he recounts how it feels to be on the margins of the British education system. As a black, male teacher – an English teacher who has had to teach problematic texts – his very existence is a provocation to the status quo, giving him a unique perspective on the UK’s classrooms.
Told through a series of eye-opening encounters based on the often challenging and sometimes outrageous things people have said to him or about him – from ‘Can you rap?‘ and ‘Have you been in prison?‘ to ‘Stephen who?‘ – Boakye reflects with passion and wit on what he has found out about the presumptions, silences and distortions that underpin the experience of black students and teachers.

This book offers a clear introduction to applying metacognition in secondary teaching, exploring the ‘what’, ‘when/how’ and ‘why’ of using metacognition in classrooms with real life examples of how this works in practice.
This is a detailed and accessible resource that offers guidance that teachers can start applying to their own lesson planning immediately, across secondary subjects.
Nathan Burns is the founder of @MetacognitionU and has written metacognitive teaching resources for TES and Oxford University Press. He is Head of Maths in a Derbyshire school.
