Product Description
This first edition gives educators a detailed view of how children ages three to six learn, based on theories of Piaget, Vygotsky and social constructivist learning. It examines how children respond in the steps of inquiry and how educators can develop skills to foster childrens active exploration in each step. Through an array of exploratory curriculum styles in math and science, including Inquiry Topics, students will develop strong skills in selecting, framing, and expanding curriculum for the preschool and kindergarten children teach. Educators also will become familiar with introducing an array of technology to enhance inquiry in the classroom.

 A Great Find! June 5, 2007

4 out of 4 found this review helpful
By accident, I came across this text at a conference. After briefly looking through it, I decided it was worth purchasing because it looked well written, organized and interesting. What I discovered when I took the time to read it more thoroughly is that it's an excellent resource for my early childhood students at Roosevelt University. I highly recommend this text to current teachers or students who are studying to become teachers of young children!
