Teach Primary Magazine V. 16 No. 6 Zurück Ausgabe

We hope you had a wonderful summer break, and that you’re ready and raring to go for the new academic year. We certainly are.

As the days grow shorter and the term grows busier, we’ve put a spotlight on behaviour management, with a confessional from a teacher who got kicked out of school when he was a child, and what that taught him about teaching; and an insight into how one school completely transformed behaviour in only six months.

We’ve also got a focus on the humanities this issue, looking at tips for getting the very best out of Google Earth for geography; how to develop a truly connected history curriculum; your guide to creating an RE curriculum that really works; and a triple whammy – figuring out whether your school’s approach to the humanities is more paint-by-numbers or a blank Sistine ceiling (and what to do about it).

Want to start the year off right with literacy teaching? Get yourself in order for writing moderation with Adam Levick’s guide to what he learned through the process; read Aidan Severs’ guide to explanation texts and how to teach them; and get help in relating abstract grammar teaching to real-life experiences with Rachel Clarke.
