Enquiry processes are central to learning and teaching in both History and Geography. This book aims to demystify and justify the approaches, identifying their common features and unique attributes.
Using an enquiry-based approach as a means of exploring teaching, it combines theoretical coverage with practical examples to develop an informed and engaging survey of humanities teaching in the primary classroom. Covering issues such as planning and assessment in history and geography, using resources in teaching and exploring creative and cross-curricular approaches in humanities, Tony Pickford and Wendy Garner provide clear theory-informed guidance vital for success in the modern primary classroom.
This is essential reading for all students studying primary history and geography on primary initial teacher education courses including undergraduate (BEd, BA with QTS), postgraduate (PGCE, SCITT), and employment-based routes into teaching, and NQTs.

′This book successfully outlines the fundamental process of enquiry led learning in History and geography. In recognising the distinctive elements of primary geography and history, it also highlights elements where these subjects can be brought together. As well as exploring possible enquiries that can take place both inside and outside the classroom, very useful advice is given on resourcing enquiry based learning. This book successfully combines theory and practice; it helps the reader to make sense of different perspectives on theories of learning related to these subject areas. It is therefore useful to both classroom practitioners and students alike, whether it is useful reading for a masters assignment or for refining enquiry based learning in class, readers will certainly be able to identify elements useful to their needs′
-Emily Rotchell, Senior Lecturer in Primary Geography, University of Roehampton
The book successfully combines theory and practice: it helps the reader to make sense of different perspectives of theories of learning related to these subject areas. It is therefore useful to both classroom practitioners and education studies students alike. Whether you are a trainee or a practitioner, this book will develop your knowledge of how young children′s understanding of place, time and community can be fostered through an enquiry-based curriculum. It will also benefit, perhaps, teachers of older children looking to encourage more independent learning in their schools. Author: Andy Reynolds
