Rezensionen

"The book is part memoir, part manifesto, but mainly Jim sharing his favourite activities, gathered from over 20 years in the classroom. Each activity is explained, explored and discussed in detail. [There is] enough in each chapter to persuade and encourage you to work on these activities with your learners." - Mathematics Teaching (ATM)

"I would definitely recommend this book, for both teachers and tutors. It is hard not to be inspired by this book... it had me engaged throughout and created sparks of ideas about designing maths lessons to be purposeful, effective, fun, and memorable." - Becky Bland, Dyslexia Review
