SEN Magazine

This easy-to-read book provides support and guidance for those wishing to develop their own competence in the delivery of physical education. Photographs of skills and activities, alongside ‘pause for thought’ moments, allow the reader to reflect on their own teaching to enhance the learning opportunities of all pupils. Covering both the early years and primary phases of education, the reader is encouraged to develop their understanding of the progress pupils make over time and the specific characteristics of performance they can expect to see.

Julia C. Lawrence, Head of Teacher Education Subject Group, School of Education and Social Sciences, University of Hull, UK

Extremely accessible, easy to read. Provides an excellent range of authentic activities. Very clear practitioner focus. I particularly like the ‘real world’ nature of the case studies and the guided reflective activities.

"I really like the format of the series…a quick read where the chapter sections make it easy to dip in and out of the text to find relevant material." Mary Hutchings, Oxford Brookes University, UKThe Mastering Primary Teaching series looks at the core principles underpinning each of the subjects of the primary National Curriculum, thereby helping student teachers to 'master' them. Each book follows the same sequence of chapters for each subject, helping lecturers to use multiple volumes concurrently. These guides introduce their subjects and help trainees to plan and teach inspiring lessons, covering the following topics within each subject area: current developments, making the subject irresistible, supporting practical activity, skills development, promoting curiosity, and assessment.

The series is written by leading professionals, who draw on their years of experience to provide authoritative guides to the primary curriculum subject areas.
