With a focus on personal reflection and discussion, it offers educators inspiration, guidance and resources to deliver a truly integrated curriculum creatively. Exploring how we can make connections in the classroom through our own lives and those of our children, it supports teachers in becoming more personally involved in decisions about the style of teaching and substance of curriculum in schools.Applying Cross-Curricular Approaches Creativelyexamines key topics such as: ã

  • Educationalists with an interest in cross-curricular and creative approaches

  • Planning for and provoking creativity ã
  • Choosing cross-curricular themes
  • Mind-full approaches to teaching and learning
  • Assessing creative and integrated learning
  • Teachers as researchers in the classroom ã

Applying Cross-Curricular Approaches Creativelyis an essential text for those wishing to plan a coherent curriculum with cross-curricular elements.

Filled with autobiographical accounts and case studies, and with ready-to-use ideas for creative lessons, this uplifting book challenges us to return to curriculum breadth and balance and away from a ''one-size-fits-all'' approach.  ã
