Developmentally Appropriate Curriculum Education emphasizes the “how” of curriculum development as well as the “what and why” to help you create the best programs for young children ages 3 through 8. It's an all-in-one guide that brings together everything pre-service teachers need to implement an integrated, developmental approach to curriculum-based instruction. Sample activities and lesson plans are included for each curriculum domain. Practical research-based guidelines and a focus on teaching methods give you the tools you need to translate theory into age-appropriate practice that accommodates individual, social and cultural differences.
The 7th Edition addresses all aspects of classroom life from conceptualization and planning, through implementation, to evaluation.
