Preschool appropriate practices by
Janice J Beaty(
Book
)
23 editions published between 1991 and 2019 in English and Chinese and held by 576 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Preschool Appropriate Practices 3rd Edition uses the creative approach, let the learning environment do the teaching, and speaks to college students as well as teachers in the field with practical applications based on current research. Each chapter is based on one of the learning centers in a preschool classroom, allowing college students and teachers alike to learn how to set up these centers in a self-directed environment. This approach encourages children 3-to-5-years old to become deeply involved in their own learning. A second important theme, let the teacher be a facilitator of learning, assists readers in their understanding of: 1) how to observe childrens developmental levels, 2) what developmentally appropriate activities to provide, 3) how to serve as a behavior model in these centers, and 4) how best to support children in their learning. Readers learn how to determine childrens developmental levels of manipulation, mastery, and meaning by observing their interactions with materials and one another. As the book title suggests, these activities integrate with the National Association for the Education of Young Childrens (NAEYC) developmentally appropriate practice (DAP), a nationally recommended set of early childhood practices. - Publisher
