Synopsis

A book full of ideas for developing language through poetry - activities, projects and displays for the Primary School at age 5 to 9. From the popular Belair series for teachers and educators; loads of ideas for the classroom, written by practising teachers. Ideal for newly qualified or anyone looking for fresh ideas. "Poetry is the starting-point for fourteen themes, all related to the environment, and each introduced by a page of poetry. Many of the poems have been especially written for this book, and are used as the starting-point for across the curriculum study, with the emphasis on writing and associated creative activities. " "These books are ideal resources for busy teachers who want to create an engaging, colourful atmosphere that is conducive to learning in… just a few lessons. Using basic materials, simple techniques and a cross-curricular approach, teachers will love to put these ideas into practice, or will at the very least be inspired just through flicking the pages, to create their own educationally stimulating and interactive environment." - Martine Horvath, EYE, April 2008" (about the book series) Note that this is the 1989 Belair edition. Many of the Belair Early Years series have been republished in more than one cover design as publishers have merged or split. The contents of all editions are identical.
