Masterful Grammar and Reading with Jennifer Webb Ep. 47 (S3E3)

For this episode, Tom and Emma discuss reading and grammar with author, leader, and English specialist Jennifer Webb.

For this episode, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner welcome author, leader, and English specialist Jennifer Webb to the podcast.

The trio open the podcast with a discussion on grammar and how the teaching of grammar has changed from description and memorization of grammar parts to more student-led creation-focused lessons. Jennifer’s interesting background and her time at Oxford led her to develop a unique perspective on grammar and how it is taught in primary and secondary. 

In the second part of the conversation, the trio discusses English teaching and learning from a more curriculum perspective, diving deeper into Jennifer’s beliefs on reading lists, explicit diversity, developing literary pallets, CPD, and creating reading cultures. This conversation highlights how reading blends the scientific, the subjective, and the creative!
