  1. 1. A New Grammar Companion For Teachers

    A practical, classroom-focused guide that explains how grammar operates to make meaning and supports teachers to teach it explicitly and usefully; it presents accessible descriptions of key grammatical systems (clause, nominal group, cohesion, modality, information structure, etc.) within a genre- and text-based approach, and links theory to practice through examples, clear metalanguage, sample lessons, teaching sequences, activities and assessment advice so teachers can scaffold students’ reading and writing development.
