  • Poetry For Dummies

    08
    Demystify and appreciate the pleasures of poetry

    Sometimes it seems like there are as many definitions of poetry as there are poems. Coleridge defined poetry as “the best words in the best order.” St. Augustine called it “the Devil’s wine.” For Shelley, poetry was “the record of the best and happiest moments of the happiest and best minds.” But no matter how you define it, poetry has exercised a hold upon the hearts and minds of people for more than five millennia. That’s because for the attentive reader, poetry has the power to send chills shooting down the spine and lightning bolts flashing in the brain ― to throw open the doors of perception and hone our sensibilities to a scalpel’s edge.

    Poetry For Dummies is a great guide to reading and writing poems, not only for beginners, but for anyone interested in verse.  From Homer to Basho, Chaucer to Rumi, Shelley to Ginsberg, it introduces you to poetry’s greatest practitioners. It arms you with the tools you need to understand and appreciate poetry in all its forms, and to explore your own talent as a poet. Discover how to:

    • Understand poetic language and forms
    • Interpret poems
    • Get a handle on poetry through the ages
    • Find poetry readings near you
    • Write your own poems
    • Shop your work around to publishers

    Don’t know the difference between an iamb and a trochee? Worry not, this friendly guide demystifies the jargon, and it covers a lot more ground besides, including:

    • Understanding subject, tone, narrative; and poetic language
    • Mastering the three steps to interpretation
    • Facing the challenges of older poetry
    • Exploring 5,000 years of verse, from Mesopotamia to the global village
    • Writing open-form poetry
    • Working with traditional forms of verse
    • Writing exercises for aspiring poets
    • Getting published

    From Sappho to Clark Coolidge, and just about everyone in between, Poetry For Dummies puts you in touch with the greats of modern and ancient poetry. Need guidance on composing a ghazal, a tanka, a sestina, or a psalm? This is the book for you.

  • Powerful Questioning: Strategies for improving learning and retention in the classroom

    Powerful Questioning: Strategies for improving learning and retention in the classroom by Michael Chiles is an evidence-based examination of the power of questioning in the classroom and how it can be improved.

    Foreword by John Hattie.

    Questioning is a staple feature of a teacher’s toolkit across all phases of education. Classrooms are awash with explanation, modelling and feedback, but of all the pedagogical strategies at a teacher’s disposal, questioning is one of the most important. It is the heartbeat of a classroom. While the art of asking a question seems relatively straightforward, to what extent do teachers consider the types of questions they’re using? Are the questions they ask students actually helping to support learning? In Powerful Questioning, Michael Chiles delves into the complexity of asking questions and how best to use this pedagogical tool as a powerful springboard to support learning in the classroom.

    Teachers are described by many as ‘professional question-askers’ and the use of questioning in the teaching and learning process dates back to one of the most influential users and developers of questions, the Greek philosopher Socrates. Socrates believed that by asking questions we encourage reflection, and that their use is most effective when we create a continual loop of dialogue between the asker and the receiver, to allow movement from surface to deeper level thinking. Powerful Questioning takes inspiration from this, providing original theory that relates back to the historical use of questioning in the classroom throughout.

    Offering a fresh perspective on how questioning can be engineered to support effective learning, Powerful Questioning examines the reasons behind the questions we ask and reveals the power of asking the right questions, in the right way, at the right time. It details a set of core principles, recommendations and classroom-based practical examples that can be used to implement powerful questioning both in the classroom and wider school.

    Michael’s aim is to help teachers become research-informed on the theories around the use of questioning in the classroom, whilst also providing a wide range of practical classroom-based strategies. Readers will take away specific examples from a broad range of case studies in which teachers at different phases of education (from Key Stages one to five) share how they use questioning to improve learning and retention.

    Essential reading for all teachers and school leaders.

    Contents include:

    • Introduction: The power of a question
    • Chapter 1: Why do we ask questions?
    • Chapter 2: How do we foster a questioning culture?
    • Chapter 3: Questioning as a mechanism to check for understanding
    • Chapter 4: Diagnostic and reflective questioning
    • Chapter 5: Powerful questioning principles

Within each chapter, you will hear from a number of contributors and be given the space to reflect on what they have shared, along with some thought-provoking questions to prompt you on how to adapt and refine your practice.

    These ideas and insights will be essential to all who work within the primary sector including trainees, early career teachers and middle and senior leaders, as well as all those who support and consult with these individuals who seek to change and improve their practice.

  • Primary Huh: Curriculum conversations with subject leaders in primary schools

    01

    There’s plenty to do when planning the curriculum in primary schools. If it feels daunting, then one of the most helpful things is to talk to other people about how they have developed the curriculum for their particular subject or key stage.

    This is what John Tomsett and Mary Myatt have done. After the secondary ‘Huh: Curriculum conversations between subject and senior leaders’ was published, they were flooded with requests to produce a primary version.

    They enlisted the help of renowned primary specialists, Rachel Higginson, Lekha Sharma and Emma Turner to have conversations with primary teachers and key stage co-ordinators who are doing great curriculum development work.

    Each chapter provides insights into the importance of individual subjects and the unique contribution each makes to pupils’ cognitive and personal development.

    The subject chapters discuss the steps colleagues take to ensure that there is a coherent thread across the year groups, as the discrete subjects deliver, collectively, the primary curriculum.

    These conversations show how the craft of creating a rich, challenging curriculum for every subject is not a quick fix. This is a nuanced piece of work, and there are many ways of approaching it. Each chapter also contains links to subject associations and helpful resources.

    Primary Huh has been written for subject leaders and key stage co-ordinators; it has also been written for senior leaders, as they prepare to have supportive conversations with their colleagues who are responsible for curriculum development.

    Primary Huh is offered as a prompt rather than the last word. Informed debate is, as they say, the fuel of curriculum development.

    And why have John and Mary called it ‘Huh’? Well, John discovered that Huh is the Egyptian god of endlessness, creativity, fertility and regeneration, and they thought that was a pretty good metaphor for their work on the curriculum!

  • Pupil Book Study: An evidence-informed guide to help quality assure the curriculum

    08

    Pupil Book Study is a window into the lived experience of pupils, as opposed to just the observed experience. It is also a mirror in which to reflect professional practice and identify what helps learning, and what hinders it by outlining clear and coherent structures in which to talk with pupils and look at their books.

    Pupil Book Study gives headteachers, senior and middle leaders a systematic toolkit to evaluate the impact of the curriculum through studying teaching and learning. Infused with cognitive science research and evidence-informed practice, it offers schools the architecture for excellence, helping remove the risk of making assumptions.

    Pupil Book Study is a guide for schools that offers 7 specific and fully exemplified areas to focus quality assurance systems. The keystone between teaching, learning and the curriculum, Pupil Book Study offers schools the tools to explain why things are as they are and presents solutions to the areas that limit or hinder progress. Schools report that Pupil Book Study has been some of the most powerful and impactful work they have ever undertaken, resulting in positive change.

    In November 2020, Pupil Book Study was shared with the Deputy Director, Senior HMI and Policy makers at Ofsted.

    Research shows that when teachers think more about questioning – deepening their understanding, extending their range of strategies and planning their questions – responses from pupils improve and engagement and learning increase. Teachers’ questions play a critical role, not just for the thinking they provoke, but in the modelling of questioning skills and the development of curiosity. Using cartoons, diagrams and visual prompts to support the text, this highly practical Pocketbook is suitable for all teachers. It separates out the elements of questioning – framing them, delivering them, and responding to the answers – and offers both simple tweaks and fundamental shifts to turn instinctive practice into a highly effective teaching and learning tool. An introductory chapter looks at how questions stimulate learning and includes a range of questioning taxonomies and models. This leads on to how to build ‘a questioning environment’ that encourages participation, sharing, exploration and thoughtful responses. A section entitled ‘Framing Questions’ identifies different kinds of questions and how they work, and subsequent chapters cover ways to deliver questions and respond to the answers you are given. A final short section provides checklists for monitoring and improving practice.

    • Ready to Teach: The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde

      01

      ‘Ready to Teach: The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde’ is a compendium of background reading, subject knowledge, resources and classroom strategies to support the teaching of Stevenson’s gothic tale of morality, murder and science. Using a combination of pedagogical theory, research and work from other Victorian writers of the time, the book helps to prepare, develop or deepen the teaching of the text in the classroom.

      As part of the Ready to Teach series, each chapter contains lesson-by-lesson essays and commentaries that enhance subject knowledge on key areas of the text alongside fully resourced lessons reflecting current and dynamic best practice.

      The book also offers an introduction and exploration of Victorian society as seen in the novel but also how other writers of that time presented similar themes or ideas. Literature is never created in a vacuum and Ready to Teach: The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde explores how text reflects its Victorian context and what other writers were doing at that time.

      ‘Ready to Teach: The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde’ has a level of duality like Doctor Jekyll himself. On one level, the book provides an exploration for the text for people new to teaching it. On another level, the book provides new ideas or ways of seeing things for the established teacher. A perfect addition for your CPD bookcase.
