Teaching and Learning K-8: A Guide to Methods and Resources [With Access Code to Online Content]

By Richard D. Kellough and John D. Jarolimek

For General Elementary Methods courses. Teaching and Learning in the Elementary School 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. NEW! Teaching and Learning K-8: A Guide to Methods and Resources now includes a 6-month access code to our robust Teacher Prep Website.
