Great resource for teachers!
Review by Julie Walkeron 21/11/2015Price Value Quality I found this book very useful as it has practical ideas that I can directly try out. Useful links are also a bonus, saved me from searching on the Internet for hours. I hate schemes, I just needed ideas to start with and this book had many!
