Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

For General Elementary Methods courses.

Teaching and Learning in the Elementary School is built on the most current research and "best" practice. It thoroughly examines all of the fundamental teaching skill categories - planning for instruction, assessing student learning, grouping for instruction, and creating a safe and effective learning environment - while constantly reinforcing the idea that effective elementary school teaching requires continual, thoughtful, and reflective decision-making. In this popular volume, three well-known authors paint a realistic portrait of elementary school teaching as a call to motivate, to encourage, to simulate, to build self-esteem, and to care for elementary school children.

Dalla quarta di copertina

This text presents elementary school teaching as a call to the service of humanity, and emphasizes that effective elementary school teaching involves continual, thoughtful, and reflective decision-making.

Features of the eighth edition include:

• Chapter openers connect Praxis III domains, INTASC principles, and National Board standards to chapter content
• Two performance-outcome projects, "developing a personal plan for classroom management" and "developing a unit plan of instruction", give students experience in applying teaching concepts
• Strong and updated research base that emphasizes the professional skills and strategies for teaching today
• "Verbal snapshots" of real incidents experienced by teachers provide provocative springboards for critical thinking and class discussion
