Must have book - Shirley Clarke

I am only 10 pages into Shirley Clarke's book but I have probably got more out of it than all my reading so far, it is simply a must-have for all student teachers.
Its title is Formative Assessment in Action and goes through exactly how to put AFL strategies into your teaching.
Our course is always explaining how important these strategies are but as yet has failed to really tell us how to put it into action.
Well Shirley Clarke does this perfectly and I genuinely think it will improve my teaching no end.
She also has another book Active Learning Through Formative Assessment which I have already ordered and look forward to reading.
This really is a great book to buy!
