โฆ Synopsis
Primary teachers have always been required to master a wealth of knowledge and professional skills and recent debate has led to pressure for ever higher levels of competence. Ted Wragg's book provides a comprehensive guide to the skills needed by today's primary teachers. Separate chapters cover such central demands of the job as explaining new topics, asking stimulating questions and settling down with a new class and one is devoted to the particular problems of supply teachers. Based on extensive research in classrooms over the last three years, Primary Teaching Skills will enlighten and entertain both student and novice teachers and their more experienced colleagues at all stages of their professional development.
