Observing Children in the Primary Classroom (RLE Edu O) : All In A Day Hardback
by Richard Mills
Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Education series
Hardback
Description
In a sequence of observations of six children aged 5-11 in six different state schools this book offers a slice of classroom life, a microcosm of the educational scene.
Since the book was first written there have been many changes in the curriculum, structure, governance and funding of British primary schools, as well as in the language used to describe these changes.
But Observing Children in the Primary Classroom remains as valid now as earlier, as a lively and entertaining indicator of children's daily school experience.
We see the reception class of an infants' school through the eyes of Mike, a lively five-year-old traveller boy.
Six-year-old Rashda, a girl of Asian heritage, grapples with English as a Second Language at her multi-ethnic city school.
Slow-learner David finds school life rather overpowering, despite receiving expert extra help.
Lucy, eight, is a star in everything she does at her Roman Catholic school, while Lorraine, one year older, is cheerful but utterly bewildered.
Finally, Peter, organises his work in an open-plan setting and makes some surprising choices.
