{"product_id":"9781041192770","title":"Reading Children's Writing : A Linguistic View by John Harris","description":"While many books of the time explored pedagogical, psychological, and linguistics perspectives of children's writing, Reading Children's Writing (originally published in 1986) takes a fresh and innovative approach by examining text-organizational methods of analysis.   The book considers `whole texts' produced by children of either top junior or lower secondary age-a time of transition which involves them in significant changes of writing styles. Here the authors consider the organizational features of narrative and non-narrative writing; the use of vocabulary; and the evaluation of children's work.   The volume provides a useful and interesting insight into the methods of describing, evaluating, and developing children's writing ability. It will be a beneficial read for teachers at primary and secondary level, and for linguists concerned with language in education.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56368618209653,"sku":"9781041192770","price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781041192770","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
