Applying Cross-Curricular Approaches Creatively: The Connecting Curriculum (Learning to Teach in the Primary School Series)

Synopsis

Applying Cross-Curricular Approaches Creatively explores the relevance and effectiveness of cross-disciplinary and project-based teaching. With a focus on personal reflection and discussion, it offers educators inspiration, guidance and resources to deliver a truly integrated curriculum creatively. Exploring how we can make connections in the classroom through our own lives and those of our children, it supports teachers in becoming more personally involved in decisions about the style of teaching and substance of curriculum in schools. Applying Cross-Curricular Approaches Creatively examines key topics such as:　　 Educationalists with an interest in cross-curricular and creative approaches　 Planning for and provoking creativity　　 Choosing cross-curricular themes　 Mind-full approaches to teaching and learning　 Assessing creative and integrated learning　 Teachers as researchers in the classroom　　 Applying Cross-Curricular Approaches Creatively is an essential text for those wishing to plan a coherent curriculum with cross-curricular elements. It places the 'basics' of knowledge, genuine motivation, engagement and　participation　at the　core of its arguments　for meaningful　learning　for　all children.　Filled　with autobiographical accounts and case studies, and with ready-to-use ideas for creative lessons, this　uplifting　book challenges us to return to curriculum breadth and balance and away from a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach.
