Bloomsbury Publishing 40 lessons to get children thinking: Philosophical thought adventures across the curriculum

This new book by Peter Worley, author of the books in the If series and founder of the Philosophy Foundation, is an A4 collection of practical lesson and activity plans to use in the primary classroom to get children thinking philosophically and creatively around different curriculum areas and topics. The sessions use thought experiments, stories and poetry to get children discussing and understanding topics more deeply.§It is a pick up and go resource, with each session explained in a consistent step-by-step format so that they are easy for any primary teacher to implement in the classroom either as a whole lesson or as an activity within another lesson. All the sessions are tried and tested by Peter and his colleagues at the Philosophy Foundation who work with primary schools to implement these sessions on a regular basis.
