Working Memory and Learning: A Practical Guide for Teachers
As a thank you to those who have been reading my blog, I have attached a 20% off voucher for a book:
Working Memory and Learning: A Practical Guide for Teachers
Here are some comments about the book:
‘A clear and accessible account of current theory and research, which is then applied to children’s learning in the classroom….The range of strategies…are well grounded in theory derived from research and sit within a coherent conceptual model’ - The Psychologist
‘An easy to read yet informative book that explains the concepts clearly and offers practitioners ways to support those with poor working memory in the classroom’ - SNIP
`The topic of working memory nowadays tends to dominate discussions with teachers and parents, and both groups can helpfully be directed to this easy-to-read but serious text … (it) is likely to prove a turning-point in the management and facilitation of hard-to-teach children. In a situation muddied by ever-multiplying syndromes and disorders, this book delivers a clarifying and reassuring isolation of the major cognitive characteristic that cuts across all the boundaries and leaves the class teacher and SENCO empowered. I think very highly of the book and shall be recommending it steadily’ - Martin Turner, Child Center for Evaluation and Teaching, Kuwait
