Description
This book offers a positive approach to thematic cross-curricular teaching. Within a clear focus on humanitarian and inclusive values, it offers guidance on robust learning in the subject disciplines within a set of highly involving themes. Its fundamental aim is the mental, physical, social and intellectual wellbeing of children and their teachers.
Discover how your teaching can support genuine age-appropriate engagement in contemporary and global issues like shared values, anti-racism, social inequalities and environmental concerns. Learn ways of drawing from a wider, inclusive and motivating curriculum without compromising progression in subject-specific learning.
Case studies and clear guidance on planning and assessment offer strong practical advice to support you in setting the foundations for smart, informed and relevant primary school teaching.
Jonathan Barnes is a Visiting Senior Research Fellow at Canterbury Christ Church University and a National Teaching Fellow.
