Pocket P4C - Getting Started with Philosophy for Children

This is an excellent little book that gives you some brilliant ideas that you can develop and adapt to meet your own classroom needs. I found myself going off on a creative wave after reading some of the sections and has definitely stimulated my interest into this area further. A very worth while yet short read that will give you a new way of thinking.

An excellent purchase: this little book is clear, inspiring and practical. Full of ideas that work with a variety of age-groups, it is also thought-provoking and a genuinely interesting read. I have successfully used it for longer discussion sessions and as quick 'transition' activities with children as young as four.

A simple guide to P4C with ideas that can be used in the classroom.

This is a very good way of being introduced to 'Philosphy for children'. A very small pocket sized booklet which you can pop in your handbag and flip through on your journey to school.

I have ordered and given out a copy for each member of staff at my school as it's a great non-threatening little booklet that explains the principles of P4C for the busy teacher and provides "ready-to-run" ideas that can be integrated into your classroom practice very quickly adding a whole new dimension. Well worth the low price!

Was recommended this book as a new teacher and I am not disappointed. It is small and concise and straight to the point. It gives you clear and easy to understand examples and has really got my brain thinking about how I could use this in the classroom. For the money definitely worth a buy!

Really useful pocket book, which is still living in my handbag. Gives a general understanding of Philosophy for Children in a concise manner, although leaves you wanting to discover more - which is a positive for the learning of all children!
