Pros

  • Provides a collection of resources supporting many aspects of SPaG
  • Offers inspiration and activities to help develop vocabulary.
  • Many photocopiable resources contained within for classroom use.

Building a rich vocabulary, across the curriculum, is one of the main aims for most teachers. Not only does a rich vocabulary help to create strong writing skills, but also can help with improving access to all areas of the curriculum.

In his book, Andrew Jennings explains why vocabulary should be a focus in your classroom, providing resources and inspiration to help optimise vocabulary learning. Resources include a focus on SPaG facts, key vocab words that support various popular primary topics, an etymology section to inspire pupils, and looking at various grammatical features that can help build a repertoire of rich vocabulary. Throughout, the book provides other resources that can be copied for classroom use, or be used to take home to help build vocabulary skills away from the school setting.

This is a handy book for primary school teachers or student teachers, particularly looking for inspiration to develop vocabulary skills within their students.
