Book Description
This book investigates children's use of language and considers its implications for children's learning at home and at school. The author compares the language used by children from different social environments at the ages of three, five and seven and considers the different approaches that children take towards their school experiences. The book discusses the problems of studying children's use and development of language and in doing so looks at the implications of a number of theories. It uses theory in order to establish a useful framework which will help teachers to become aware of the skills that children have established in using language when they come to school.

Book Description
Beyond Initial Response - Second Edition was written to fill a significant gap in ICS training. Responders have to be ready to carry out their ICS position-specific responsibilities, and to be effective they have to know how to operate as part of an ICS organization. This book provides readers with the confidence, knowledge and assurance required to participate successfully as part of an incident management team. This second edition builds upon the original version that was put through its paces by the greatest critics - first responders and students of emergency management. The second edition provides three new chapters: The Area Command, written from the perspective of an Area Commander; a chapter on multi-agency coordination that provides an overview of how multi-agency coordination works from various viewpoints, and new chapter titled Emerging Communications, which introduces the topic of New Media and its potential challenges and benefits to incident management teams. In addition to the new chapters, the section of the book that covers the Safety Officer has been significantly expanded, concentrating on hazard analysis. You will also find some new ''tools'' in the appendixes of the book. These include: Managing Risk, Best Briefing Practices, Sample Instructions to the Field Observer, and Delegation of Authority.

Book Description

Book Description
This is an essential text for primary trainees and teachers. While the focus in early reading is on systematic synthetic phonics, it is important to see the bigger picture and understand that teaching reading is a continuum that involves more much than the mechanics of reading. The book focuses on a range of issues to develop children who can read into children who do read, including extending reading with proficient readers, engaging disengaged readers, sustaining interest in reading in the transition from primary to secondary, and the importance of oracy in reading. Additionally, there is an exploration of the wider context of reading including international perspectives, new literacies and the importance of reading to personal development. Case studies and activities demonstrate practical applications with clear links to the underpinning theory, while critical reflections challenge the reader and encourage deeper thought about the chapter content.
