Flipped Learning for Elementary Instruction

From the authors of the bestselling Flip Your Classroom, this book shows educators how to successfully apply the flipped classroom model in elementary classrooms.

Following up on their landmark book, flipped education innovators Jonathan Bergmann and Aaron Sams return with a book series that supports flipped learning in the four topic areas of science, math, English and social studies, as well as the elementary classroom. This book is a practical guide for elementary teachers interested in flipping their classrooms.

Each chapter offers practical guidance on:

• How to approach lesson planning
• What to do with class time
• How to employ project-based learning techniques

Flipped Learning for Elementary Instruction helps elementary teachers deal with the realities of teaching in an increasingly interconnected and digital world.
