Product Description

Review

"...Janet Moyles's carefully and imaginatively edited book will be of great interest to a wide educational community... This is more than a handbook for students and their tutors - it is a manifest of the dedicated and closely focused professionalism of the University of Leicester team, and I am sure that it will still be being read in ten years time by all concerned with primary education." - Mentoring and Tutoring --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description

"This collection provides an excellent introduction to the practical skills which all student teachers have to develop but it also celebrates the unpredictability and excitement of working with interested, inquisitive children. [It] should inspire readers to see teaching, in universities as well as in classrooms, as the promotion of lively conversations between learners. "
– Rod Parker-Rees, University of Plymouth

"The second edition was invaluable and this is even better."
– Yvonne Yule, University of Aberdeen

The third edition of this highly successful text sets out to explore some of the wider issues to be investigated by beginning teachers - and those who support them - when working with early years and primary age children, while at the same time, exploring some of the delight and enjoyment in the teaching role.

The book is organised into four parts - Early Beginnings; Beginning to Understand Children's Thinking and Learning; Organising for Teaching and Learning; Supporting and Enhancing Learning and Teaching - and reflects the current context of education and care by covering children from birth to 11-years. There are new chapters covering teaching assistants and interagency working, as well as children's independence and physical activity. Cameos and examples of practice in settings and classrooms help to illustrate the many different aspects of teaching.

Comprehensively revised and updated throughout, this book is written in a lively style and offers guidance, encouragement and support for all those new to working in schools and other educational settings, and gives them the confidence to reflect upon, challenge and enhance their own learning and practices.

Beginning Teaching Beginning Learning is essential reading for all students and newly qualified primary teachers.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 1 Mar 2004

Format:Paperback
I start teacher training in Sep, I bought this book in order to give me a good foundation to start the course with. It has been a highly insightful read, and I am convinced the information in it helped me through my interview.

The book is clearly written with many ideas which I am sure I will take with me into the classroom.

A must buy for any prospective student teachers.

As someone soon to begin a teacher education course I bought this book to provide me with some background reading. Each chapter is well laid out and tied to a particular topic.

The book refers to examples and then explains theories and ideas related to these, which makes it easier to understand and more true to life.

This book is ideal for anyone wanting to be a teacher, on a teacher education course, or even in their early years of the profession.

This book is an amazing insight into the world of teaching! As a graduate about to begin her pgce in september, this proved to be most helpful in highlighting all different aspects of teaching as a career. It looks at a variety of topics such as teaching and the law, lesson observation, assessment and how to handle the kids. In doing so, it provided help and advice on not only the practical elements, but also the formal side such as paperwork and organising procedures such as observation. I read this in a very short time because I just couldn't put it down!
A must have for anyone thinking about going in to teaching, or who has made the decision and wants to get a little advice before that final step.
