Synopsis

Exploring Headlines is one of a series of source books designed to help the study of knowledge about language in the English curriculum at key stage 3, each of which contains a range of examples of language in use which highlight the variety and structure of English. In each book, an anthology of examples is followed by a section of activities which encourage pupils to explore their own language and to collect further examples for their English work. These activities explore issues of purpose and audience in relation to choices from the language system, and are selective rather than sequential. All examples are accessible to the 11–14 age group, and there is a strong emphasis on observation and description of language rather than prescription.
