Description
All About Child Care and Early Education, Second Edition, is a comprehensive resource for child care practitioners -- or those looking to become child care practitioners -- including teachers, care givers, family child care providers, administrators, and directors. This newly revised edition covers the basics of early education and care: providing safe, healthy, and appropriately stimulating learning environments; child development and developmentally appropriate practices and curricula in all domains (physical, cognitive, language, social-emotional, and creativity), positive guidance strategies, partnering with families, child assessment and program management, and professionalism. Filled with a plethora of practical suggestions for setting up classrooms, developing curricula for young children, meeting children's social-emotional needs, and working effectively with parents and staff for the Child Development Associate degree, this book will prepare students for diverse roles as educators of children ages 0-5.
