Product reviews for The Monkey-Proof Box

If you are thinking about designing a new curriculum for your school, The Monkey-Proof Box is essential reading. Jonathan Lear's step-by-step guide describes how to effectively teach skills within a curriculum framework, breaks down the pedagogy of concept-based learning and discusses the importance of creativity and discovery within the learning process. Jonathan's accessible style makes for an enjoyable read, and offers a philosophy of education for all would-be guerrilla teachers.



In this unique time in which schools and educators can choose how they teach, I would recommend this book to all teachers and to those in positions of leadership or governance.
