Teaching and Learning K-8: A Guide to Methods and Resources

Book Summary:

This text book 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.
