Book excerpt: Since its publication in 1984, the first edition of "Organising Learning in the Primary School Classroom" has been recognized as an indispensable guide for elementary school teachers in their quest for more effective practice in the classroom. This classic work offers help on everyday problems of classroom organization: how to group children, how to physically arrange a classroom, and how to make the most efficient use of time and resources. Throughout, the aim is to get teachers, and student teachers, to analyze their own classrooms and to produce solutions that will work for them. This second edition has been completely revised to take account of recent thinking in education, including discussions on Britain's Education Reform Act and the National Curriculum. Sections on curriculum content--particularly those connected with the teaching of science--have also been expanded.
