Product Description
Product Description
There are powerful sections on parents and communities ... I particularly liked the stimulating 'ideas galleries' with their statements from researchers, policy-makers and practitioners around the world."
Nursery World, October 2004
This key textbook introduces students and practitioners to a wide range of different approaches to early childhood. It provides practical strategies for developing and implementing early learning experiences that promote excellence and equity for children.
The book presents the latest research and thinking about good practice, discusses how various philosophies and beliefs influence decisions in early childhood education, and identifies the key thinkers behind each approach. By examining different perspectives, the book helps early childhood practitioners to navigate their way through competing views, make informed choices, and be critically reflective in their work.
In an accessible, lively and user-friendly way, it explores issues such as:
- What constitutes an appropriate early childhood curriculum
- How best to study and assess children
- Involving parents and children in early childhood learning
- Boxed definitions of key terms
- Ideas summary charts and ideas galleries
- Clarification exercises
- Case studies
- Further reading lists
