Peppered with engaging and practical ideas of how practitioners can provide quality science experiences for the children they work with, the book also includes: • case studies exemplifying good practice and tried-and-tested ideas • reflective tasks for practitioners at any level, from students and early career professionals through to those now leading practice • contributions from leading experts in emergent science, as well as developing professionals; and • tools for developing professional, study skills and research skills to Masters level. This book is ideal students on both Early Years and primary courses, including PGCE and undergraduate routes; students of Education Studies and Early Childhood Studies; and practitioners working in Early Years and primary settings.Jane Johnston is a Reader in Education at Bishop Grosseteste University, Lincoln.
