|a"What is English as a school subject for? What does knowledge look likein English and what should be taught? Making Meaning in English examines thebroader purpose and reasons for teaching English and explores what knowledgelooks like in a subject concerned with judgement, interpretation and value.David Didau argues that the content of English is best explored throughdistinct disciplinary lenses - metaphor, story, argument, pattern, grammarand context - and considers the knowledge that needs to be explicitly taughtso students can recognise, transfer, build and extend their knowledge ofEnglish. He discusses the principles and tools we can use to make decisionsabout what to teach and offers a curriculum framework that draws thesestrands together to allow students to make sense of the knowledge theyencounter. If students are going to enjoy English as a subject and do wellin it, they not only need to be knowledgeable, but understand how to usetheir knowledge to create meaning. This insightful text offers a practicalway for teachers to construct a curriculum in which the mastery of Englishcan be planned taught and assessed"--Provided by publisher.
