Whether you are a seasoned educator just being initiated to the DAP concept, or a student just beginning to savor the taste of the classroom world, this book is a must for your library. There is no element of early childhood education that DAP does not touch. Strategies of teaching and learning, activities and routines, the physical environment, classroom management, family evolvement, and assessment procedures are all enfluenced by the principles of age, individual, or social appropriateness!
Trumps Peterson's Book By An Edge Due To Balanced Presentation
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Once again, Prentice Hall displays why it remains a superforce in creating textbooks: its balanced and accessible research-based comprehensiveness. As with my first Chemistry book in high school, I believe this book possesses everything you will need to know about early childhood curriculum. The former champion, in my opinion,--Evelyn Peterson's A PRACTICAL GUIDE OT EARLY CHILDHOOD CURRICULUM--gets bested here because this text presents, in a well-understood way, what Peterson's book also did well: present pratical explanations. This texts gets the slight edge because the authors ably worked in all the research and citations relevant to the concepts without overloading a teacher's mind with scholarship. It's a difficult feat that I have only seen one other time in an ECE text (J.A. Brewer's INTRODUCTION TO EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION). Here's where you really get a smashing deal: this book will give you all you need to grasp the curriculum topics on the PRAXIS II: Education of the Young Child test. The New Champion of Early Childhood Curriculum college textbooks. Take a bow and a victory lap.
