Nov 25: New book

This book appeared last week and a class set was delivered at the end of the week. It's a new venture from the GA's publishing arm and the first time that a full three year KS3 course has been made available in just one book.

It has an excellent team of both writers and editors who between them have created an excellent and very well designed book with a series of topics which could be used as the basis for a whole KS3 scheme. 

Teacher materials are also available separately to support colleagues who want the full package. 

A sample chapter on the Geography of Disease can also be downloaded from the GA website.

Copies can be ordered for prompt delivery from the GA Shop.

Textbooks are a significant investment of course, but can offer significant savings in time, copying, folding, designing etc. the alternatives.

Update

A good David Preece blog post here on the value of textbooks may be worth reading too.
