Language is at the heart of what we do, how we live and the ways we learn. Teaching Language in Context explores how an explicit understanding of how language works enables students to make informed choices in their use and understanding of texts. Written by leading experts in functional grammar in Australia, it equips you with the knowledge to refine your own literacy capacities and develop the skills and strategies you need to support your students in meeting the challenges of learning to critically read and compose texts.

The third edition includes essential updates and revisions focused on recent developments in teaching, while enhancing the comprehensive structure of the text. New chapters and content explore the use of language for responding, poetry in teaching language, and the use of imagery to explain different forms of multi-modal texts across various curriculum areas. With the inclusion of 'Think about it' and 'Have a go!' activities to help you reflect on your learnings and familiarise yourself with language features, Teaching Language in Context will strengthen your language skills for the evolving learning space.
