"Improving teaching and learning in the core curriculum is about the core curriculum in primary schools. Each of the chapters focuses on how aspects of the core subjects of English, mathematics and science can be developed. The writers examine the ways in which the core curriculum can be developed since the introduction of the National Literacy and Numeracy Hours, and the QCA syllabus for the teaching of science. The book presents new ideas about the teaching of the core subjects through descriptions of classroom practice."--Jacket.
