Trade ReviewMention -Book News, February 2009
"Whether you are a teacher early in your career looking to gain new skills or an experinced practitioner wishing to expand your toolkit and freshen up your teaching, then this book has something for you" Education Today, 1 December 2009
"A bright red toolbox brimming over with teaching resources appropriately illustrates the cover...Teachers will find that strategies aligned to each chapter are practical and resourceful, that intended outcomes are clear, and timings of application useful for embedding one or more strategies within overall lesson plans. Ingenuity of positioning each strategy within the National Curriculum thinking skills is a further supportive feature of this book...There is so much practical and creative information oozing from this book...I recommend this book for teacher of primary and secondary school pupils. Teachers of older students may also find this creative approach to teaching invaluable. A further, and potentially even more creative, use of The Creative Teaching and Learning Resource Book is to offer the resource to pupils. Though experimental, the experience of choosing tools to enhance their own learning may itself create new teaching strategies." escalate.ac.uk/5523, October 2009
