"To Value Every Child in the Moment"
Armstrong, Michael
FORUM: for promoting 3-19 comprehensive education, v56 n3 p341-348 2014

The author examines one particular story by a six-year-old girl as an example of what this assertion implies, and of its significance for teaching and learning within the primary school.
