Description
Appropriate for courses in Introduction to Early Childhood Education in Departments of Early Childhood, Curriculum and Instruction, Psychology, Human Development and Family Studies.
Early Childhood Education: An Introduction is based on the belief that teachers of young children must be highly skilled-knowledgeable about children, their parents, and the community in which they live, as well as the processes of teaching curriculum content. The authors take a comprehensive, integrated approach, offering preservice teachers a complete and current overview of the field.
