Adam Pennington, Learning and Teaching Update, Issue 63 April 2013
Hywel Roberts is a creative educator with 16 years' experience teaching drama and English in schools. He is a consultant and speaker specialising in Drama for Learning, Mantle of the Expert, Lures into Learning and engagement across all phases.

This book is about engaging learners in great learning so well that they barely know that they are learning. The author talks a great deal about making learning relevant whilst giving your pupils relevant skills that will last them a lifetime. The main point throughout focuses on creating a context to learning that will help to engage children and produce a more memorable learning experience. With snappy chapter headings such as -˜Stop teaching me when I'm trying to learn' and -˜Inspector of the lure', and a useful resources chapter, this is a good read, full of practical teaching ideas that will make you think about your teaching.

Whether you are new to teaching or have vast experience in the classroom, you will find in this book inspiration to raise achievement, improve behaviour and enhance creativity in the classroom, which might even change the way you approach lesson planning forever. This is also an excellent resource to support the Montessori teaching method.
