Dialogue has long been used in primary classrooms to stimulate
thinking, but it is not always easy to unite the creative thinking
of good dialogue with the need for children to understand the core
concepts behind knowledge-rich subjects. A sound understanding of
key concepts is essential to progress through the national
curriculum, and assessment of this understanding along with
effective feedback is central to good practice. Dialogic Education
builds upon decades of practical classroom research to offer a
method of teaching that applies the power of dialogue to achieving
conceptual mastery. Easy-to-follow template lesson plans and
activity ideas are provided, each of which has been tried and
tested in classrooms and is known to succeed. Providing a structure
for engaging children and creating an environment in which dialogue
can flourish, this book is separated into three parts: Establishing
a classroom culture of learning; Core concepts across the
curriculum; Wider dialogues: Educational adventures in the
conversation of mankind. Written to support all those in the field
of primary education, this book will be an essential resource for
student, trainee and qualified primary teachers interested in the
educational importance of dialogue.
