"Starting with B for 'beginnings', this film takes an alphabetical journey through the key issues affecting lesson planning, and features seven teachers from across the UK sharing their tried and tested strategies for success.
In addition to all the different ways to start a lesson, the teachers talk about chunking (or breaking the lesson into sections); how they plan for different endings (listen out for the particularly musical strategies); the different hooks they use to engage children (including revealing that you're a secret agent!); and how they begin to plan for progression.
Last but by no means least, the contributors discuss what can go wrong with lesson planning. The most important point, it seems, is not to be afraid to step away from the lesson plan."

"Stickers, housepoints, buttons and marbles - how can you reward the pupils in your class? The key is consistency.
Eight teachers from schools across the UK talk about their approaches to rewarding children and the problems and pitfalls a teacher faces. Children understand fairness even better than adults, but what is a consistent approach, and how do you explain it not only to your children but to their parents? How important is it to know a child to be able to reward them, and are there rewards that just don't work for some children? Teachers talk about how the key to a successful reward is the praise that accompanies it; giving children positive feedback is a million times more successful in controlling behaviour and promoting learning than focusing on mistakes. 'Praise is everything' - but what can go wrong with rewards?"

Is time management for teachers just a matter of common sense or is it a skill you need to learn? Eight teachers from schools across the UK talk about the problems they have managing their own time and the strategies they've used that have worked for them. The teaching profession is a list- making profession, but everyone is occasionally guilty of displacement activities, whether that is rearranging your noticeboard when you are meant to be writing the SEF or spending hours on the beautifying of the classroom when you are meant to be planning. How do the teachers in this programme avoid wasting their time? These teachers trade their tips for saving time on marking, tell us how they say no when they have to say no, and how they make sure parents can help them save time.

Primary Libraries can be a great asset in a school, but some Ofsted inspection reports note they are an undeveloped resource. We visit Ben Jonson Primary in Tower Hamlets, London, who are working closely with their local schools library service to keep the library at the heart of the school. The programme covers staffing options, integrating the library into school life, refreshing the stock, running activities and the role of effective leadership from senior management. It also provides a case study for employing a qualified librarian on a part time basis to support and lead a Teaching Assistant who has day to day responsibility for the library.

"Resource Review is your solution to finding the best resources for teaching your subject. Each week we test out resources in classrooms around the country and with experts at our studio base in London.
Judy Sayers, senior lecturer in Mathematics education at the University of Northampton, recommends three primary mathematics resources:
The CD-Rom, Hundreds of Numeracy Resources, trialled by teacher Isaac Anoom and pupils in Kensal Rise Library in Brent, London.
The book, We Can Work It Out, roadtested by teacher John Maniford and his Year 5 class at Engayne Primary School in the London Borough of Havering.
And the studio panel review: a surprising choice for maths - a storybook called The Man, by Raymond Briggs.
Judy joins presenter Hermione Cockburn to discuss the resources in studio with panellists Jenny Piggott Director of NRich, and educational consultant Adrienne Jones."

Teacher study groups are a wonderful tool for building a reflective, research-based community within schools. This video provides a window into the study group process as literacy specialist Jennifer Allen facilitates a group exploring ways to improve writing workshops. Showing excerpts from the fall and spring meetings of the group, the video details the evolution of thinking and discussion as practices are introduced and tried in the classroom, and as reflections on those successes and failures are shared among the members of the group. The extensive viewing guide includes sample formats, suggestions of books and videos for groups, and detailed advice for launching and sustaining study groups over time.

"How one primary school is providing a framework for assessing and developing the TA-teacher relationship, a framework that can be adopted by other schools and for self-evaluation by teachers and TAs.
Kate Atkins, TA line-manager and deputy headteacher at Rosendale Primary School, has developed a structure for assessing and developing the teacher-TA relationship. In this programme Kate uses the framework as she observes the class teacher-TA team of Jane and Tara as they work together in Jane's year one class.
Kate then provides detailed feedback and offers advice on how their working relationship could be enhanced and further strengthened."

A fourth–grade teacher and a museum educator in New Orleans collaborate to develop a unit of study with ties to language arts, social studies, and visual art. Students explore the work of a well–known artist, visit an exhibition of his work, meet for a drawing lesson alongside the Mississippi River, and create poems and pictures that they proudly display to their parents.
About the series:
The programs in this video library show classroom teachers and arts specialists using the arts in a variety of successful ways. The 14 video programs — filmed in elementary schools around the country — along with a print guide and companion Web site, serve as a professional development resource for K-5 teachers seeking new ideas for integrating the arts into the classroom. Teachers featured in these programs include specialists in dance, music, theatre, and visual art, as well as classroom teachers from kindergarten through fifth grade. Programs 2 through 6 show Arts Specialists at Work, 7 through 12 present ideas for Arts in the General Classroom, and 13 and 14 address the challenges of Organizing for the Arts.
Produced by Lavine Production Group in collaboration with KSA-Plus Communications and the Southeast Center for Education in the Arts. 2003.
