AS IN THE LONG AGO. Thinking about English Primary education, trees, writing and cycling. Thursday, 20 January 2011. Michael Gove wants children to learn more facts. Why? Because we can benchmark more easily. He just kind of slipped that in to his interview on the Today programme where they were all very matey together (Gove used to work on the programme as a researcher). Do any of them ever read education research findings? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Click to visit my website. London, United Kingdom.

AS IN THE LONG AGO: BIrds' Nests
http://maypaul.blogspot.com/2012/12/birds-nests.html
AS IN THE LONG AGO. Thinking about English Primary education, trees, writing and cycling. Friday, 28 December 2012. So here is the first in a series of small adventures in Primary education. Think of it as an antidote to Govism. I said, just thinking out loud really. They all said. 'Let's try.'. We didn't write about this activity. I didn't carry out any assessments.
