Engelsk for secondary school
Juliet Munden and Christina Sandhaug are colleagues at Høgskolen i Innlandet. They are both teacher educators, enjoy working together and more or less live on the same corridor. So one day they decided to write a book with everything they and other people know about how to teach English in secondary school in Norway. Juliet and Christina have decades of teaching experience. Juliet has written lots of books and Christina is (relatively) young. Together they are dynamite!
As long as learners are working towards the aims in Kunnskapsløftet, you as an English teacher are free to choose which material and which activities they work with. This book will support you in making those choices. It is the big sister of Engelsk på mellomtrinnet: A teacher’s guide (2014) and contains much of the same thinking and some of the same learning activities, adapted and expanded to meet the needs of secondary school teachers. It also includes two completely new chapters. Throughout the book you will hear the voices of ten experienced secondary English teachers, who generously share their experience and enthusiasm. We hope you will value the discussions, the activities and the resources that we have gathered here.
Munden & Sandhaug
Engelsk for Secondary School is a comprehensive exploration of the possibilities and challenges in subject English in Years 8–13. It is easy to read, practical and up-to-date. It builds on the latest research findings and on our combined fifty-two years of experience as English teachers! We have tried to live up to our motto: “Turning the blah blah into aha”.
