100 Ideas for Secondary Teachers: Supporting Students with Dyspraxia by Amanda Kirby,Lynne Peters Pdf

4-5% of children in schools have dyspraxia and around 60-70% continue to have challenges into adulthood. Most importantly, dyspraxia often overlaps with other learning difficulties including dyslexia, autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). 100 Ideas for Secondary Teachers: Supporting Students with Dyspraxia covers key areas that are challenging for students with dyspraxia as they arrive at secondary school, move through the school and then eventually leave, and shows teachers how to practically assist them at every stage. International experts Amanda Kirby and Lynne Peters explore difficulties that secondary school students with dyspraxia may encounter, including motor functioning difficulties, sports, and social difficulties such as making and sustaining friendships. Amanda and Lynne use practical examples and solutions, from providing ICT guidance to dealing with emotional difficulties, and consider the impact on the everyday functioning of schools. In doing so, they present the first book to specifically focus on dyspraxia in secondary schools making it ideal for exploring what can be done at an individual, class and whole-school level to provide the best support for students with dyspraxia.

Just Great Teaching by Ross Morrison McGill Pdf

'Bursting with fresh ideas, packed with practical tips, filled with wise words, this is an inspiring guide for all teachers.' Lee Elliot Major, Professor of Social Mobility, University of Exeter and co-author of What Works? 50 tried-and-tested practical ideas to help you tackle the top ten issues in your classroom. Ross Morrison McGill, bestselling author of Mark. Plan. Teach. and Teacher Toolkit, pinpoints the top ten key issues that schools in Great Britain are facing today, and provides strategies, ideas and techniques for how these issues can be tackled most effectively. We often talk about the challenges of teacher recruitment and retention, about new initiatives and political landscapes, but day in, day out, teachers and schools are delivering exceptional teaching and most of it is invisible. Ross uncovers, celebrates, and analyses best practice in teaching. Supported by case studies and research undertaken by Ross in ten primary and secondary schools across Britain, including a pupil referral unit and private, state and grammar schools, as well as explanations from influential educationalists as to why and how these ideas work, Ross explores the issues of marking and assessment, planning, teaching and learning, teacher wellbeing, student mental health, behaviour and exclusions, SEND, curriculum, research-led practice and CPD. With a foreword by Lord Jim Knight and contributions from Priya Lakhani, Andria Zafirakou, Mark Martin, Professor Andy Hargreaves and many more, this book inspires readers to open their eyes to how particular problems can be resolved and how other schools are already doing this effectively. It is packed with ideas and advice for all primary and secondary classroom teachers and school leaders keen to provide the best education they possibly can for our young people today.
