A really useful and practical book, brim-full of good ideas to use in the classroom, backed up by effective reference to relevant research. The inclusion of so many 'case studies' adds to the immediate relevance and usefulness of this book. --Lecturer- University of Southampton
An excellent, practical handbook. --Lecturer, St Mary's University College
What an interesting read! With an increased push for the creative use of resources and 'adapting and innovating' existing resources, this book is very appropriate for students as they develop knowledge and understanding of the revised primary framework. --Lecturer - University of Gloucestershire
