We live in a world surrounded by all the stuff that education is
supposed to be about: machines, bodies, languages, cities, votes,
mountains, energy, movement, plays, food, liquids, collisions,
protests, stones, windows. But the way we've been taught often
excludes all sorts of practical ways of finding out about ideas,
knowledge and culture - anything from cooking to fixing loo
cisterns, from dance to model making, from collecting leaves to
playing 'Who am I?'. The great thing is that you really can use
everything around you to learn more. Learning should be much more
fun and former children's laureate, million-selling author,
broadcaster, father of five and all-round national treasure,
Michael Rosen wants to show you how. Forget lists, passing tests
and ticking boxes, the world outside the classroom can't be
contained within the limits of any kind of curriculum - and it's
all the better for it. Long car journeys, poems about farting, cake
baking, even shouting at the TV can teach lessons that will last a
lifetime. Packed with enough practical tips, stories and games to
inspire a legion of anxious parents and bored children, Good Ideas
shows that the best kind of education really does start at home.
