Learning to Teach in the Primary Classroom

" This is designed as an introductory book and for those wanting more detail supplementary material is found at the end of the chapters. This includes analysis of curriculum and policy documents, case studies, suggestions for further reading and activities to try out in the classroom. Throughout, teachers are encouraged to think about how the basic skills fit together in their professional development. The book is easy to use, provides plenty of reassuring advice - an excellent book for all trainee teachers." - Sarah Brew, Parents in Touch

'I found Learning to Teach in the Primary Classroom a very useful book ... What I liked about each of these chapters is taht the information provided is clear and easy to understand and they are full of practical, down-to-earth advice ... It is obvious from reading through the examples that the authors have their feet on the ground and that the advice offered is based on first hand experience of well tried practice in the classroom ... This book is not simply a "tips for teachers" handbook.' - - Times Educational Supplement
