A colourful, attractive environment is the hallmark of the best primary school classrooms, but display is often seen as ‘wallpaper’ and, with increasing pressure on teacher-time, as expendable or even frivolous. First published in 1996, Display in the Classroom defends display in the classroom as an important aspect of primary education which children help to create and with which they constantly interact. It can reflect and inspire children’s learning in dynamic ways which are central to social, emotional, and intellectual growth. Display in the Classroom shows teachers how to develop such a learning environment and to defend it as central to the processes of education. Numerous illustrations, some in colour, support the text.
