Now available in an updated seventh edition, this popular resource is designed to deepen pre- and inservice teachers' understanding of children (birth–age 8) as unique individuals within a developmental context. Observation notes recorded over time reveal patterns in children's behaviour, as well as ways in which behaviours may change. To strengthen teachers' efforts to better understand children as individuals, the authors provide a timeless methodology for documenting young children's behaviour as they actively engage in classroom life. They outline methods for recordkeeping that capture children's interactions and experiences in the classroom. Numerous examples of teachers' observations of children enrich this work and make it accessible, practical, and enjoyable to read. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook
