Powering Up Children provides a perfect marriage of Guy Claxton's very accessible refreshing of the research behind the Learning Power Approach and Becky Carlzon's practical, detailed, and imaginative lesson descriptions, which bring the design principles to life beautifully. The format of the book is particularly attractive, featuring really useful “wondering” and “bumps along the way” sections to aid teachers as they begin to experiment with the approach themselves.
Any teacher reading this book will feel inspired and empowered to get going with the Learning Power Approach straight away, because it all seems so doable.
