Product Description
Through a combination of practical approach and professional rigor, this accessible book provides a core text for trainee teachers and their mentors. It systematically explores the issues and skills involved in becoming a teacher and provides a wealth of classroom examples with which to illustrate the important theoretical points raised.

Learning to Teach in the Primary Classroom is structured to be of maximum value to the students beginning pre-service training and is divided into six chapters, each covering an important area of practice. Subjects included are planning, classroom organization and management, teaching strategies, assessment, self-appraisal and professional development. At the end of each chapter are additional sections which elaborate on the issues raised and provide practical activities which the student and mentor can use to develop the student's professional competencies. Throughout, novice teachers are encouraged to think about how the basic skills fit together in their proofessional development and determine the sort of teacher that they will eventually be.
