Contesting Early Childhood and Opening for Change

Art and Creativity in Reggio Emilia

Gunilla Dahlberg, Institute of Education, Stockholm, Sweden and Peter Moss, Thomas Coram Research Unit, Institute of Education, UK

Exploring the Role and Potential of Ateliers in Early Childhood Education

Drawing on and concluding this landmark series, this book offers a review of the emerging critique of the dominant discourse and, equally important, examines the possibilities for change that alternative discourses are opening up, both theoretically and in actual practice. Through argument and example this book: provides many examples of emerging new practice; discusses the conditions needed to further this process of experimentation, diversification and renewal; offers a democratic challenge to everyone interested in early childhood.

Does Every Child Matter?

Understanding New Labour’s Social Reforms Catherine A. Simon and Stephen Ward, both at Bath Spa University, UK

Every Child Matters represents the most radical change to education and welfare provision in almost two decades. This book moves beyond a descriptive ‘how to’ framework to examine the underlying political and social aims of this policy agenda.

The authors’ analysis reveals that Every Child Matters represents the Government’s attempt to codify perceived risks in society and to formulate their responses. In doing so, children are made the strategic focus of much wider social policy reform, the effects of which are first felt in education.

Early Childhood Matters

Peer Relationships in Early Childhood Education and Care

Evidence from the Effective Pre-School and Primary Education Project Edited by Kathy Sylva, University of Oxford, UK, Edward Melhuish, University of London, UK, Pam Sammons, University of Oxford, UK, Iram Siraj-Blatchford and Brenda Taggart

Edited by Margaret Kernan and Elly Singer, University of Utrecht, the Netherlands

Early Childhood Matters documents the rapid development of early years education and care from the late 1990s into the new millennium. It chronicles the unique contribution of the EPPE research to our understanding of the importance of pre-school.

Peer Relationships in Early Childhood Education and Care brings together fresh perspectives and research about young children’s relationships. It examines children’s rights and well-being against a backdrop of increased social movement and migration, changing family structures and work practices, and the growing prevalence of education and care services for young children.

The Effective Pre-School and Primary Education (EPPE) project is the largest European study of the impact of early years education and care on children’s developmental outcomes. Through this ground-breaking project a team of internationally-recognised experts provide insights into how home learning environments interact with pre-school and primary school experiences to shape children’s progress.

With contributors from diverse cultural, geographical and disciplinary backgrounds, this edited collection shows how educators support children’s peer relationships and use these as a basis for enhancing social and cognitive development. Themes discussed include: conflicts and negotiations; friendships and play; group phenomena; independence and interdependence; identity and belonging; peer relations and children with disabilities; and attuning adults to young children’s relationships.

This insightful book is essential reading for all those interested in innovative research methodology and policy development in early childhood education and care.

This book will be highly relevant for academics, researchers and students concerned with early childhood care and education, especially those interested in relating these issues on a global scale.

Picturebooks and Pedagogy Philosophical Perspectives Joanna Haynes, University of Plymouth, UK and Karin Murris, University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa Series: Routledge Research in Education This book considers censorship of certain well-known picturebooks, challenging the assumptions on which this censorship is based. Through a lively exploration of children’s responses to these same picturebooks the authors paint a way of working philosophically based on respectful listening and creative and authentic interactions, rather than scripted lessons.

The authors propose that a courageous and critical practice of listening is central to the facilitation of mutually educative dialogue. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of education studies, philosophy of education, literacy teaching and learning, children’s literature, childhood and pedagogy.

Rethinking Play and Pedagogy in Early Childhood Education

Transforming Children’s Spaces

Concepts, Contexts and Cultures Edited by Sue Rogers, Institute of Education, University of London, UK Bringing together a collection of chapters from international experts in the field of early childhood education, Rethinking Play and Pedagogy in Early Childhood Education seeks to explore how play in the early years is valued as a means of learning. The book discusses how play is presented, transformed by institutional and pedagogical discourses and ultimately experienced by children. Adopting cultural, conceptual and contextual approaches to play and pedagogy across its chapters, this book addresses contemporary emerging issues surrounding play and pedagogy including: • the application of critical and socio-cultural analyses to play in early childhood • renewed interest in the aesthetic, creative and affective dimensions of play in early childhood education • competing discourses of ‘performativity’, market forces, social reconstruction and child-centredness • children’s voice and participation within educational settings • globalization, migration and cultural pluralism • the role of digital technology in early childhood education • diversity, identity and social justice within early childhood settings.

November 2010: 234 x 156: 208pp Hb: 978-0-415-48075-8: $120.00 Pb: 978-0-415-48076-5: $39.95

Children’s and Adults’ Participation in Designing Learning Environments Alison Clark, The Open University, UK

With the expansion of early childhood education and the move to ‘extended schools’, more young children will spend more time than ever before in institutions. Based on two actual building projects, this book is the first of its kind to demonstrate the possibilities of including young children’s perspectives in the design and review of children’s spaces.

Situated at the heart of the debate about the relationship between the built environment and its impact on children’s learning and wellbeing, Transforming Children’s Spaces provides insights into how young children see their environment; discusses children’s aspirations for future spaces; and develops the ‘Mosaic approach’, pioneered by the author, as a method for listening to young children and adults.

Emphasising the importance of visual and verbal methods of communication, this fascinating book demonstrates how practitioners and young children can articulate their perspectives, and shows how participatory methods can support new relationships between children, practitioners and architects.

Children’s Drawing and Writing The Remarkable in the Unremarkable Diane Mavers, University of London, UK Series: Routledge Research in Education This book takes a very close look at what passes by largely unnoticed at home and in school: copying, texts fleetingly present then gone, a picture drawn after the valued work of writing has been completed. Examining features of children’s text making that are commonly disregarded because of their very ordinariness, or dismissed as mistakes because they are flawed or lacking, the book examines features such as shading, arrangement and forms of shorthand, and uncovers an intensity of effort in the making of meaning. In decisively shifting the focus away from insufficiency to what children can do and to the ‘work’ they invest in the texts they make, the lens taken here reveals resourcefulness and purposiveness.

I have been a head teacher for twenty years and this is the best book on primary education that I have ever read.’ – Bob Garton, Head Teacher, London ‘This is the most thorough, research-based analysis of primary schools I have seen in over two decades of reporting on education. It should carry the testimonial ‘This book should change English primary schools forever’.’

– Mike Baker, formerly Senior BBC Education Correspondent ‘There is a simple account of the Cambridge Primary Review, which is essentially about awe and wonder: it is a formidable achievement.’ – Andrew Pollard, British Educational Research Journal Children, their World, their Education is the definitive text for students, teachers, researchers, educational leaders and all who are interested in primary education.

As the culmination of the Cambridge Primary Review, the most comprehensive enquiry into English primary education for half a century, its publication provoked instant and dramatic headlines. But Children, their World, their Education is much more than a report. It is an unrivalled educational compendium that systematically covers the issues that are central to the daily work of students, teachers and heads. For trainee teachers on undergraduate and postgraduate courses it effectively maps the territory of primary education and provides the context, information and insight which are essential to the development of classroom skill. Its vast range of carefully evaluated evidence makes it a core resource for those undertaking research and advanced study. Its direct engagement with the policy process during a period of unprecedented change makes it an indispensable tool for policy analysis. It places England’s education system in the global context, and combines evidence on recent developments with a vision of how primary education should be.

Edited by Derek Kassem, Lisa Murphy, both at Liverpool John Moores University, UK and Elizabeth Taylor

Helene Guldberg, The Open University, UK

Freedom and Play in an Age of Fear

Challenging current orthodoxies on the nature of childhood, it is an essential text for students as well as those studying relevant professional qualifications in social work, teaching and health.

The Expressive Nature of Creativity in Childhood

2nd Edition

Edited by Dorothy Faulkner, The Open University, UK and Elizabeth Coates, University of Warwick, UK Drawing on detailed research evidence from innovative educational initiatives in different countries Dorothy Faulkner and Elizabeth Coates develop new theoretical and practical insights that challenge traditional educational thinking about children’s creativity. The main themes investigated through chapters from well-respected international contributors: support the argument that expressions of creativity and the exercise of creative processes by young children are multimodal, social and collaborative; challenge the view that young children’s creativity can only be judged in terms of their creative outputs or products; argue that it is more important to concentrate on the processes that children engage in when they are absorbed in acts of creative expression; contest conventional discourses about the origins and nature of creativity in relation to arts education in schools; and discuss the need for formal educational training programmes to offer trainee and experienced teachers more sophisticated cultural discourses and experiences so that they can realise their own creative potential as well as that of the children they teach.

The New Early Years Professional Dilemmas and Debates Edited by Angela D. Nurse, formerly of Canterbury Christ Church University, UK Celebrating the spirit of, and need for, increased multi-disciplinary working and co-operation in the care and education of children, this book brings together the dilemmas and debates in the study of early childhood. It supports the reader in understanding the background and context and encourages them to reflect on the challenges and possibilities of future early years and integrated working.

This new edition incorporates recent legislation such as the Early Years Foundation Stage and a detailed discussion of the issues surrounding child protection, the role of the social worker and children’s health. Chapters include: Safeguarding Children, Play and Creativity, Birth to Three, Special Education Needs, Children’s Learning, Child Development and Psychology, and Health Issues for Children and Families.

This broad yet coherent collection of fresh perspectives on creativity in childhood is essential reading for students, researchers and policy-makers in early childhood as well as for early years professionals with a particular interest in creativity.

A Learning Community in the Primary Classroom

Early Childhood Education Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow Suzanne L. Krogh and Kristine L. Slentz, both at Western Washington University, USA

Jere Brophy, Janet Alleman, both at Michigan State University, USA and Barbara Knighton, Winans Elementary School, Michigan, USA

Divided into three sections that deal with the past, present, and future, Early Childhood Education asks the reader to think about important ideas underlying and encompassing today’s early childhood education. First providing historical and philosophical perspectives of the field, authors Krogh and Slentz then look at careers in early education, what it’s like to be a teacher or caregiver today, compare and contrast contemporary models of ECE, and examine cultural and individual differences that confront and challenge teachers. Finally, this book looks to the future of the field and discusses debates on current issues.

In an accessible and meaningful way, Early Childhood Education examines foundational topics that encourage early childhood education students to think, reflect, and develop opinions, theories, and philosophies about their field.

This interactive book invites the reader to develop a personal philosophy of early childhood education and identity as an early educator, in order to build a sufficient foundation for continual growth as a teacher.

This richly detailed description and analysis of exemplary teaching in the primary grades looks at how a teacher establishes her classroom as a collaborative learning community, how she plans curriculum and instruction that features powerful ideas and applications to life outside of school, and how, working within this context, she motivates her students to learn with a sense of purpose and thoughtful self-regulation. The supporting analyses, which ground the teacher’s practice in principles from curriculum and instruction, educational psychology, and related sources of relevant theory and research, are designed to allow teacher-readers to develop coherent understanding and appreciation of the subtleties of her practice and how they can be applied to their own practice.

Towards Excellence in Early Years Education

Outdoor Learning in the Early Years Management and Innovation Helen Bilton, University of Reading, UK

Now in its third edition, Outdoor Learning in the Early Years is the complete guide to creating effective outdoor environments for young children’s learning.

Comprehensively revised and updated throughout, this book covers every aspect of working outdoors in the early years and fully explains the importance of outdoor play to children’s development.

Key topics covered include: how to manage and set up the outdoor area, what children gain from being outside, how to allow children to take managed risks, making sense of work and play, how outdoor provision helps children become self regulatory, providing for both boys and girls in the outdoor environment, and research supporting the outdoor approach. Outdoor Learning in the Early Years contains a multitude of ideas and activities for working outdoors in the early years and provides a framework within which professionals can analyse and develop their outdoor provision and environment.

Exploring Narratives of Experience Kathleen Goouch, Canterbury Christchurch University, UK

This book uniquely describes the work of two early years professionals, drawing on their narrative accounts as they robustly describe and analyse their work with young children. Against a backcloth of increasing regulation and inspection of early years care and education, Kathleen Goouch emphasizes the importance of building authentic relationships with children and their families, explores how play can be promoted as the central site for learning, and shows how professionals can use play to account for children’s development and learning.

In analysing the early year professionals’ narratives, this book explores key themes including: traditional notions of ‘teaching’ and how they can be redefined; the significance of talk in children’s lives; teachers’ professional identities; and how children’s potential in learning can be achieved through play. Celebrating knowledge, skills and understanding and re-defining what it means to be a teacher, in its broadest sense, this fascinating book brings together research and literature from across disciplines.

Parallel Learning of Reading and Writing in Early Childhood

Literacy, Power, and the Schooled Body

Mary Shea, Canisius College, USA

Kerryn Dixon, University of Witwatersrand, South Africa

Based on current research, Parallel Learning of Reading and Writing in Early Childhood explores why and how to create a balanced language learning environment for young children and offers effective ways for children to practice and explore language.

What effects do space and time have on classroom management, discipline, and regulation? How do teachers’ practices create schooled and literate students? To explore these questions, this book looks at early childhood classrooms, charting the shifts and continuities as four year-old children begin preschool, move from preschool into primary school, and come to the end of the first phase of schooling at nine years. The literacy classroom is used as a specific site in which to examine how children’s bodies are disciplined to become literate.

Shea offers the purpose, context, and outcomes of including writing right from the start in young children’s literacy learning. The impact that writing has on young children is explored throughout the text with analysis of children’s writing samples, research, and principles of best practices. Shea integrates discussion of assessment, classroom environment, instructional scaffolding, and differentiating instruction across developmental levels along with the theory supporting these throughout the chapters.

A Companion Website includes lesson ideas and abundant writing samples for analysis and discussion.

Learning in Time and Space

Photographs, lesson transcripts, interviews, and children’s work show how teachers’ practices are enacted on children’s bodies in time and space. In this way, teachers are offered practical examples from which to think about their own classrooms and classroom practice, and to reflect on what works, why it works, and what can be changed.

Beyond Early Literacy

The Routledge Companion to Children’s Literature

A Balanced Approach to Developing the Whole Child Janet B. Taylor, Auburn University, USA, Nancy Amanda Branscombe, Athens State University, USA, Jan Burcham, Columbus State University, USA and Lilli Land, Auburn University, USA Beyond Early Literacy offers a literacy method that goes beyond simply developing language arts skills.

Known as Shared Journal, this process promotes young children’s learning across content areas – including their communication and language abilities, writing skills, sense of community, grasp of diverse social and cultural worlds, and understanding of history, counting, numeracy, and time.

Pairing interactive talk with individual writing in the classroom community, this rich method develops the whole child.

This two-part book is first framed by current theory and research about children’s cognitive, language, and literacy development, and an extensive body of research and case studies on the efficacy of the method. The second part features strategies from on-the-ground teachers who have used the process with their students and explores how Shared Journal can be used with new technologies, can meet standards, and can be appropriate for diverse populations of children.

Edited by David Rudd, University of Bolton, UK Series: Routledge Companions

The Routledge Companion to Children’s Literature is a vibrant and authoritative exploration of children’s literature in all its manifestations. It features a series of essays written by expert contributors who provide an illuminating examination of why children’s literature is the way it is.

Topics covered include: the history and development of children’s literature; various theoretical approaches used to explore the texts, including narratological methods; questions of gender and sexuality along with issues of race and ethnicity; realism and fantasy as two prevailing modes of story-telling; picture books, comics and graphic novels as well as ‘young adult’ fiction and the ‘crossover’ novel; and media adaptations and neglected areas of children’s literature.

The Routledge Companion to Children’s Literature contains suggestions for further reading throughout plus a helpful timeline and a substantial glossary of key terms and names, both established and more cutting-edge. This is a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to an increasingly complex and popular discipline.

Introducing Bruner

Evolutionary Playwork Reflective Analytic Practice

A Guide for Practitioners and Students in Early Years Education

Bob Hughes, PlayEducation, UK

Sandra Smidt, Freelance Educational Consultant, UK

Play is a crucial component in the development of all children. In this fully updated and revised edition of his classic playwork text, Bob Hughes explores the complexities of children’s play, its meaning and purpose, and argues that adult-free play is essential for the psychological well-being of the child.

This book takes the reader on a journey through some of Bruner’s key concepts in relation to early learning and teaching. It makes explicit the links between these concepts and discusses each one in a way which makes sometimes difficult ideas accessible to all readers, relating them to practice throughout.

The book is divided into three broad sections. The first examines the fundamentals of evolutionary playwork, from creating the right play environment to issues of safety and participation. Secondly, the book explores the key theoretical concepts underlying playwork. Finally, the book offers important models to help playworkers develop their own professional practice. Throughout the text, Hughes brings his arguments to life with vivid personal reflections on a lifetime’s experience of play and playwork, while the book also incorporates dedicated material for parents looking to better understand and enhance the development of their own children.

Bruner’s key concepts explored in this accessible companion include: his significant work on early language acquisition looking at turn-taking games and rituals; intersubjectivity: how infants come to ‘read’ the minds of others and learn to be part of the social world; his views on the reasons for the failure of children to learn to read; intuitive and analytical thinking; links to Reggio Emilia and the influence of Vygotsky on his work.

Understanding Behaviour and Development in Early Childhood A Guide to Theory and Practice

Edited by Sandra L. Christenson, University of Minnesota, USA and Amy L. Reschly, University of Georgia, USA

Maria Robinson, Independent Adviser and Lecturer in Early Years Development, UK

Handbook of School-Family Partnerships

In this accessible and thoughtprovoking text, Dr. Maria Robinson examines the behaviour of babies and young children in a developmental context, and takes into account the shifts and changes over time as young children grow and mature.

Understanding Behaviour and Development in Early Childhood reveals, for example, how behaviour perceived as ‘difficult’ in a young child may be the manifestation of a response to emotional, sensory and cognitive experiences. Throughout the book, readers will find a strong emphasis on emotional well-being and the need to place our understanding of behaviour within a developmental time frame.

Based on wide-ranging professional experience, the topics examined and discussed in this insightful book include: what we understand by ‘behaviour’, how the brain and senses work and mature during early childhood, behaviour as a reflection of the child’s internal state, what emotions are, and how we learn what feelings mean to us as individuals, how emotions affect our ability to learn, and how we develop a sense of self.

Family and community involvement are increasingly touted as a means of improving both student and school-level achievement. This has led to an increase in policies, initiatives and goals designed to address family involvement in schools. Once recognized and implemented, such family-school partnerships can lead to the following benefits: enhanced communication and coordination between parents and educators; continuity in developmental goals and approaches across family and school contexts; shared ownership and commitment to educational goals; increased understanding of the complexities of children’s situations; and the pooling of family and school resources to find and implement quality solutions to shared goals.
