Maurice Ryan

The LearningLinks series provides classroom religion teachers in primary and secondary schools with practical teaching and learning resources to assist in the design and implementation of their programs.
Each book contains extensive teacher background information, reproducible blackline masters, copious teaching ideas, writing templates, quizzes, games and puzzles, prayers, an annotated list of useful websites, and other teaching and learning activities. The ideas and activities can easily be adapted to suit changes in content, learning ability and teacher preference. Each book offers teachers at all levels - in secondary, primary and early years classrooms - a varied repertoire of materials and activities that can be included in the presentation of their classroom programs. These activities can be effectively implemented by the novice teacher and the experienced practitioner alike. The teaching and learning activities match the style and scope of activities used in other contemporary classroom programs and
