Reviews / Votes
As expected from an experienced teacher and author like Julia Russell, this guide is jam packed with activities, all of which are very closely linked to the specification and very well organised. It contains a huge variety of different activities; there really is something for everyone... The media watch activities make use of very up to date stimulus material that students would enjoy. All of the activities have clear learning objectives. Of particular use are the stretch and challenge tasks, these could be used to ensure lessons offer extension for more able students, something the dreaded OFSTED are very hot on at the moment... This book would be a useful addition to any teacher's resources. Deborah Gajic, ATP NewsletterMore details
