By Deb Curtis and Margie Carter

Written by Scribd Editors

Children require close observation, and while many people know this, it's challenging to maintain the level of awareness needed for ongoing practice and systematic study of kids. Using nine different observation studies, authors Deb Curtis and Margie Carter offer educators a look into the importance of awareness in teaching and how it can help educators of young children.

This updated second edition includes contemporary challenges in early childhood education and learning standards, assessment, and technology, all of which present particular challenges to many students. In their previous books, Learning Together with Young Children and Designs for Living and Learning, the authors present similar findings and insights on educating young kids.

These books are invaluable to educators and offer advice and case studies to help them see the significant changes teachers can make in the classroom. Take advantage of the research and observations in this useful guide for teachers working with young children.
