As a trainee teacher you have a huge amount to grapple with when it

primary national curriculum. Subject knowledge cannot be developed in
isolation, it must relate to the curriculum knowledge and pedagogical
knowledge, enabling ways to teach the subject with confidence. This book
takes you though a journey of the national curriculum, supporting you to
think about each subjects' positioning within the national curriculum,
the subject knowledge you need to know and how to teach each subject in
a creative way. Highlighting the importance of diversity, equity and
inclusion across all chapters, this book enables new teachers to bring
new voices and perspectives to the classroom. It includes:
- Key subject knowledge.
- Examples of sequenced lessons.
- Classroom ideas.
- Links to further learning and subject associations.
- A chapter exploring the subject knowledge needed to teach
sustainability and climate change.
