Reseña del editor

There is growing evidence that phonics is helpful in initial literacy teaching, and there is a growing interest in its potential for adults. However, in order to deliver phonics effectively and systematically in the classroom, training for practitioners is essential. Phonetics for Phonics is a straightforward, user-friendly guide for adult literacy teachers, which is mapped to the requirements of the adult literacy core curriculum in the UK. The book will help teachers deliver phonics confidently and accurately in their classroom practice. It contains key terms and concepts of phonetics and relates these concepts to practical teaching strategies and the core curriculum. Including tasks to test knowledge, this is a recommended text for literacy training courses, and for general degree-level language and literacy courses as an introduction to phonics.
