内容説明

* How can we ensure that all young children have access to a high quality education? * What does an appropriate curriculum for children between birth and age 6 look like in practice? * How best can nursery nurses, playgroup leaders, teachers and childminders work with parents to enhance children's education? This sympathetic and accessible text seeks to answer these questions and to provide guidance for adults working with young children in a variety of formal and informal settings. The book focuses on improving the effectiveness of early education. The authors emphasise that children from birth to age six have particular developmental needs and argue that those working with young children are most likely to meet these needs if they approach their work developmentally. This means offering children educational opportunities within the framework of an integrated and developmentally appropriate curriculum. In this way, young children will acquire social skills, attitudes and dispositions, as well as subject knowledge, in ways which more closely match their individual capabilities and levels of attainment. The book will be valuable reading for all concerned with the care and education of young children - parents, teachers, nursery nurses, childminders and playgroup leaders.

内容説明

Addressing such questions as how to ensure all young children have access to high quality education, and what constitutes an appropriate curriculum between birth and 6 years of age, this text also looks at how best nursery nurses, playgroup leaders, teachers and childminders can work with parents to enhance education of children. This text aims to be sympathetic and accessible, and to provide guidance for adults working with children in a variety of formal and informal settings. Improving the effectiveness of early education is a particular focus. To this end, the authors emphasize that children from birth to age six have particular development needs, and they argue that those working with young children are most likely to meet these needs if they approach their work developmentally. The suggested solution is to offer children educational opportunities within a framework of an integrated and developmentally appropriate curriculum. The argument concludes that this approach would enable the acquisition of social skills, attitudes and dispositions by young children, as well as subject knowledge. This would hopefully match their individual personalitites, capabilities and levels of attainment more closely than (present) conventional learning frameworks.
