What do teachers say about this resource? (6303)

The step-by-step activities are clear and easy to follow... The independent nature and roles inherent to the model are explicit and well thought through. Each lesson is different and allows student to work collaboratively and independent of the teacher. I like that each role is very distinctive with clear and well-considered tasks suitable for that role... plenty of opportunity for students to lead independently. Having aims and ‘lesson focus’ makes the resource easy to use for the teachers.
