Description: | Select Guide Rating Offering unique insights into real-life early childhood interactions, this book provides a valuable resource for early childhood teachers. It brings together contributions from a global team to offer practical advice for teaching and talking with children, and includes transcripts to demonstrate the practices of teaching and learning with children. Early childhood teachers know that the quality of child-teacher interactions has an impact on children''s social and educational outcomes. Talking with children is central to early learning, but the significant details of high quality conversations in early childhood settings are not always obvious. This Handbook brings together experts from across the globe to share evidence of teachers talking with children in early learning environments. It applies the methodology of conversation analysis to questions about early childhood education, and shows why this method of studying discourse can be a valuable resource for professional development in early childhood. Each chapter of this Handbook includes an up-to-date literature review; shows how interactional pedagogy can be achieved in everyday interactions; and demonstrates how to apply this learning in practice. It offers unique insights into real-life early childhood education practices, based on robust research findings, and provides practical advice for teaching and talking with children. |
