About The Book
Academic Literacies in the Middle Years offers a fresh and impactful approach to supporting teachers in enhancing their understanding of how language functions across academic disciplines. Drawing on the systemic functional linguistic theory, this book introduces a 4 x 4 metalinguistic toolkit that is both practical and research-backed.
The book demonstrates how teachers have used this toolkit to engage middle school students in curriculum literacy instruction, assessment, and feedback, leading to impressive improvements in students' performance on national literacy tests and writing assessments across various subjects. With a strong emphasis on disciplinary literacies, it addresses the contemporary needs of international curricula and provides an evidence-based model for professional learning design.
Designed for educators, researchers, and curriculum developers, this book not only bridges theory and practice but also offers insightful guidance on supporting literacy development in diverse sociocultural contexts.
