Covers ages 0-8. The fifth edition of this brief, paperback, best-selling text has been thoroughly updated to ensure that future teachers of young children encounter the most current ideas about how children learn, how best to teach them, and how to effectively include their families and their communities in their education. This revision offers a new 4-color design, increased curriculum coverage via new Environments and Curriculum sections in the ages/grades chapters, new step-by-step Competency Builder features demonstrating how to do key teaching tasks, new Ethical Dilemma scenarios, and is a Teacher Prep integrated media edition. Plus, it again provides Morrison's trademark trio–comprehensive coverage, inviting format, and appealing writing. A low cost, paperback alternative to the full edition.
