'This book considers the basic issues of progression, continuity and transition from both the perspective of children and teachers, and then moves into discussing the strengths and limitations of different ways of tackling the problem. It provides a very realistic balance between presenting a range of practical approaches designed to smooth the transition as well as the research findings that underpin them. All this is done in an accessible way, being written in a very readable style with clear summaries and suggestions for reflection on the issues raised.
I like this book. It fills a niche not covered elsewhere.Templates and diagrams are particularly clear and useful. A valuable addition to the genre of Science education texts.
This title is also available on SAGE Knowledge, the ultimate social sciences online library. If your library doesn’t have access, ask your librarian to start a trial.
