| Active Learning in Primary Classrooms: A Case Study Approach This brand new text not only explores and examines the concept of active learning, but demonstrates how every teacher, new or experienced, can translate theory into practice and reap the rewards of children actively engaged in their own learning in the classroom. Central to the book is the series of extended case studies, through which the authors highlight examples of effective teaching and learning across the whole primary curriculum. They provide practical examples of planning, teaching and assessing to encourage, inspire and give confidence to teach in creative, integrated and exciting ways. Jenny Monk and Cathy Silman are both experienced Primary school teachers who have a passionate interest in how children learn. They have taught in a variety of settings in both the primary and higher education sectors. |
