It then examines the curriculum best suited for the needs of this age-group, and considers traditional concerns of education for young children, namely play and language development. Cognitive growth and emotional and social development are then covered, before three final chapters go on to look at children who find learning difficult, for whatever reason; at ways of working with parents and others; and at how the transition from the first stage of education to the next can be most smoothly accomplished. There are suggestions for further reading related to all of those topics.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eEditor's Preface VII \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements ix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 The Early School Years: An Introduction 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Classroom Concerns 19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Approaches to the Curriculum 35\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Play and Learning 53\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Helping Language Growth 74\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Some Aspects of Cognitive Growth: Piaget and Others 96\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Promoting Emotional and Social Development 16\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Learning Difficulties 141\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Collaborating with Parents and Others 160\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Change and Continuity 180\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 198\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFurther Reading 220\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 225\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Education [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Education\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Education%20%5BJN%5D%22\"\u003eJN\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52316760473880,"sku":"9780631140054","price":29.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780631140054.jpg?v=1781824015","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/teaching-five-to-eight-year-olds-theory-and-practice-in-education-paperback-softback-9780631140054","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
