Early Childhood Language Arts

"Early Childhood Language Arts, Fourth Edition, "offers a more comprehensive look at early childhood literacy education integrating the language arts - listening, speaking, reading, and writing - than any other book on the market. In response to the call for evidence-based reading instruction, the Fourth Edition includes 36 research-based teaching strategies, and every chapter incorporates information on brain research, bilingual education, technology, and the media's influences on young children. Mary Renck Jalongo provides readers with a synthesis of the information on language arts gleaned from research on emergent literacy, early childhood education, and special education. She also underscores what is being emphasized in early childhood teacher accreditation programs; namely, responding to the increasingly diverse needs of young language learners in inclusive settings, working with parents and families, and collaborating with professionals in other fields.

Teaching Compassion: Humane Education in Early Childhood

In response to highly publicized incidents of school violence, educators across the United States and in many other nations are seeking effective ways to prevent and modify aggressive and anti-social behaviors in students. One of the major recommendations of the research is that efforts to prevent cruelty need to begin early, during the early childhood years of birth through age eight. The focus of Teaching Compassion: Humane Education in Early Childhood is guiding young children to accept responsibility for and to be kind in their interactions with fellow human beings, animals and the environment. Although humane education is a relatively new concept in the field of early childhood educatio...

This book offers systematic instruction and evidence-based guidance to academic authors. It demystifies scholarly writing and helps build both confidence and skill in aspiring and experienced authors. The first part of the book focuses on the author’s role, writing’s risks and rewards, practical strategies for improving writing, and ethical issues. Part Two focuses on the most common writing tasks: conference proposals, practical articles, research articles, and books. Each chapter is replete with specific examples, templates to generate a first draft, and checklists or rubrics for self-evaluation. The final section of the book counsels graduate students and professors on selecting the most promising projects; generating multiple related, yet distinctive, publications from the same body of work; and using writing as a tool for professional development. Written by a team that represents outstanding teaching, award-winning writing, and extensive editorial experience, the book leads teacher/scholar/authors to replace the old “publish or perish” dictum with a different, growth-seeking orientation: publish and flourish.

Young Children and Families in the Information Age

  • Publisher: Springer

This edited book presents the most recent theory, research and practice on information and technology literacy as it relates to the education of young children. Because computers have made it so easy to disseminate information, the amount of available information has grown at an exponential rate, making it impossible for educators to prepare students for the future without teaching them how to be effective information managers and technology users. Although much has been written about information literacy and technology literacy in secondary education, there is very little published research about these literacies in early childhood education. Recently, the National Association for the Educa...

This textbook prepares early childhood educators (ages birth to age 8) for the variety of roles (advocate, facilitator, planner, mediator, etc.) they must assume in working with children, parents, colleagues, principals, administrators, and the community at large. This book addresses the critical issues in the field of early childhood education with an emphasis on the transformational roles of all early childhood professionals. Each chapter discusses these roles in depth so readers will be best prepared to face realities of the field, such as how to be accountable to standards, to collaborate with families, to develop intentional and meaningful curriculum and assessment, to teach children in a diverse and inclusive classroom environment, and to use developmentally appropriate principles and practices so that every child will learn and succeed.

The Arts in Children's Lives

The purpose of this book is to unify the arts into a holistic concept of aesthetic education for young children. The book's aims are: to convince teachers that the arts are for everyone--and essential to the daily curriculum; to show teachers how the arts build children's interest, motivation and learning in all subject areas; to demonstrate how teachers can draw on a wide array of arts resources to enrich their curriculum; and to address the developmentally appropriateness of arts activities and show how they support the goals of multicultural education. This book provides many examples of teachers who designed an arts-based curriculum and offers practical, concrete suggestions about evaluating children's growth in key areas of the arts: music and movement, art and craft, play and enactment. For professionals involved in the arts education of young children.
