Since its publication in 1984, the first edition of Organising Learning in the Primary School Classroom has been recognised as an indispensable guide for primary school teachers in their quest for more effective practice in the classroom. It gives help on everyday problems of classroom organisation: how to group children, how to set out a classroom physically, how to make the most efficient use of time and resources. Throughout, the aim is to get teachers and student-teachers to analyse their own classrooms and to produce solutions that will work for them. This second edition retains these strengths, but has been completely revised to take account of recent thinking in education and of the new situation created by the National Curriculum with its associated assessment. The sections on curriculum content and especially the teaching of science have been expanded and the very useful guidance on topic work now looks at the implications of the National Curriculum for this method of teaching.

Organising Learning in the Primary School Classroom

Routledge

How can teachers improve what they do in the primary classroom? Which teaching methods will help you and your pupils to perform effectively? These are the questions that every teacher will be asking him or herself in today's climate of targets and tables. Much research over recent years has focused on the role of the teacher and how effective classroom practice is achieved. The book discusses many areas of topical importance including: teaching methods motivating learners and matching work to children how to structure children's learning classroom control and organisation teaching literacy teaching children with special education needs working with parents. It also looks at the increasing role of the teacher as a researcher and how colloborative practices are providing a way for teaches to appraise both their own progress and that of their colleagues. This book should be of particular interest to the classroom teacher who is looking for ways to develop his or her teaching but has limited time to explore the research. It sets out to translate the findings of research into practical terms which teachers can easily use.

Improving Children's Learning (Educational Management Series)

This third edition of Organising Learning in the Primary School Classroom brings this acclaimed and invaluable text up to date with regard to issues such as literacy and numeracy strategies and the latest edition of the national curriculum. It also covers recent research into effectiveness in teaching and learning and the importance of developing emotional intelligence.The book provides teachers with a guide to all aspects of teaching practice. Opening with a look at the choices faced by a teacher when planning work in the classroom, it goes on to look at child development and considers those aspects a teacher would have to take into account. There is a chapter on the curriculum and chapters on core subjects, which cover literacy and numeracy hours and include suggested teaching strategies. Other chapters address classroom management and dealing with children with special needs or exceptional ability. Throughout there are analyses to help teachers consider aspects of classroom work. These will be invaluable, not only to newly qualified teachers, but also experienced practitioners wishing to review their work.

This book describes good practice in the primary school and offers advice particularly to beginning teachers and students. It begins by considering the children, their physical, intellectual and emotional development and the development of their self-image. It makes suggestions about ways in which a teacher can assess a new class and stresses the importance of motivation and first-hand experience.The Effective Primary School Classroom covers all the issues teachers are faced with in their day-to-day work and includes chapters on:  managing time and space teaching and learning working in groups evaluation and record keeping classroom management working with support staff working with parents. In addition, there is discussion of ways of organising learning to help children acquire the learning set out in the National Curriculum. Including case studies and suggestions for investigations, this text is essential reading for student teachers about to begin school placements or newly qualified teachers just starting their first post. More experienced teachers and teacher trainers will also find the book a useful resource.

Meeting the Learning Needs of All Children: Personalised Learning in the Primary School

Personalized learning involves helping each child to reach his or her full potential - intellectually, personally and socially. To achieve this, teachers need to match learning opportunities to the learning styles and experiences of the children, taking into account individual differences in culture, language, background, ability and interests. For many teachers, individual learning has always been at the heart of what they do in the classroom. In this book, experienced teacher and author, Joan Dean, unpicks the concept of personalized learning and shows teachers how to apply it to planning, teaching and assessing learning. The book is accessibly written and gets right to the nitty-gritty of what personalized learning looks like in the classroom. It covers:   a whole-school approach to personalized learning getting to know the children working with boys and girls providing for children with special educational needs providing for very able children providing for children from other cultures providing for bilingual children providing for children from different social backgrounds working with assistants and volunteers.

Since the publication of the first edition, Organising Learning in the Primary School Classroom has been recognised as an indispensable guide for primary school teachers in their quest for more effective practice in the classroom. It gives help on everyday problems of classroom organisation: how to group children, how to set out a classroom physically, how to make the most efficient use of time and resources. Now in its 4th edition, the book retains these strengths but has been brought right up to date with the many changes that are taking place nationally and globally. The book begins with a survey of these recent changes and goes on to consider their implications for teachers if today's schools are to prepare children for what is, to some extent, an unknown future.
