A warm and comprehensive child-centered approach to early childhood education

Who Am I in the Lives of Children? An Introduction to Early Childhood Education presents a constructivist approach to early childhood education (birth to grade 3) and care programs that is dedicated to the development of the whole child–physical, social, emotional, and intellectual. With its practical orientation; personal voice; appealing photographs, videos, authentic children’s classroom work; and engaging stories, it allows readers to visualize effective classroom practices. Aspiring educators are encouraged to learn about each child’s strengths, interests, and challenges. This understanding, coupled with contemporary, research-based information, inspires readers to support each child’s growth and learning in ways that are in harmony with who they are, rather than according to a predetermined plan. The Enhanced Pearson eText features embedded video and assessments.
