Praise for previous editions:

'This is an excellent book for teachers and essential reading for anyone who works in primary classrooms.' - Perspective

'[Joan Dean's] considerable ability to absorb ideas, analyse and organise the information lead to a clear exposition. Add to that her preference for plain language and it is no surprise, though it is a pleasure, that the book is so readable.' - Education Today

From the Back Cover
This third edition of Organising Learning in the Primary School Classroom brings this acclaimed and invaluable text up to date with regard to issues such as literacy and numeracy strategies and the latest edition of the national curriculum. It also covers recent research into effectiveness in teaching and learning and the importance of developing emotional intelligence.
The book provides teachers with a guide to all aspects of teaching practice. Opening with a look at the choices faced by a teacher when planning work in the classroom, it goes on to look at child development and considers those aspects a teacher would have to take into account. There is a chapter on the curriculum and chapters on core subjects, which cover literacy and numeracy hours and include suggested teaching strategies. Other chapters address classroom management and dealing with children with special needs or exceptional ability. Throughout there are analyses to help teachers consider aspects of classroom work. These will be invaluable, not only to newly qualified teachers, but also experienced practitioners wishing to review their work.

Good book for going over the basics I seem to be able to reference this book in most of my Education Studies essays.
