Bloomsbury Curriculum Basics: Teaching Primary History

Description

Teaching Primary History offers an exciting new approach to planning and delivering effective primary lessons in a fun and refreshing way, with three carefully structured lesson plans in each chapter. Closely following the National Curriculum guidelines for KS1 and KS2, each topic includes a helpful summary, relevant History vocabulary lists, important people and dates, and a wealth of interesting facts to engage, excite and extend pupil knowledge at all levels. With links to online resources, further ideas for trips, books and apps; exciting activities for whole-class involvement; as well as opportunities for individual and group learning, this book will bring the past to life with a bang! A must-have resource for primary practitioners, subject co-ordinators and history clubs.

Matthew Howorth is an experienced Head of Primary History and a creative and innovative teacher, combining storytelling with dramatic reconstructions, music and songs - together with a healthy dose of humour in every lesson!

I'm very pleased with the Bloomsbury Curriculum Basics range and would highly recommend them to home school parents and new teachers too. There's a wealth of knowledge to be gained from them as well as lesson plans to guide you through each lesson ensuring you meet the criteria. In my mind, they are a great investment as they'll see you through all 6 years of Primary education. * Nazira, lovehijabgirl.blogspot.co.uk *
