Series: 100 Ideas for Teachers

No matter what you teach, there is a 100 Ideas title for you!

The 100 Ideas series offers teachers practical, easy-to-implement strategies and activities for the classroom. Each author is an expert in their field and is passionate about sharing best practice with their peers. Each title includes at least ten additional extra-creative Bonus Ideas that won't fail to inspire and engage all learners.

The educational underachievement of boys is a concern for educational professionals throughout the UK, and so is consistently at the top of most schools' agendas. There is no quick fix to tackle this issue and absolve it completely. There are, however, countless ways of addressing the issue which will help teachers support the boys in their class to reach their full potential.

In his new book, established writer on boys' underachievement Gary Wilson gives teachers a way to tap into what is going on inside boys' heads, their experiences and their way of looking at the world around them, and how to value and build upon this in their practice to ensure they get the most of out their male students.

Packed with practical lesson plans, activities and strategies, plus suggestions of how to take these ideas further, this book is ideal for all primary teachers who are looking to motivate boys in the classroom and move a step closer to closing the gap between male and female achievement in school.

Reviews for 100 Ideas for Primary Teachers: Raising Boys' Achievement

"""Gary Wilson is one of the country’s foremost experts in issues related to boys’ achievement. This book is a grab-bag of ideas laid out in such a way that you can read just a short excerpt at a time and still gain many easily implemented ideas which seek to develop a caring version of masculinity in the boys we teach."" * Phil Beadle, author of Rules for Mavericks: A Manifesto for the Disobedient *"
