Teaching Across the Early Years 3-7 by Hilary Cooper

Teaching Across the Early Years 3-7 by Hilary Cooper

This book explores ways of developing continuity in children's learning from 3-7. It describes three case studies in which tutors on ITT courses work with early years practitioners in a variety of schools, each linked to a pre-school setting.

'The book documents a collaborative project between St Martin's College and two infant schools, a nursery school and a day care unitEach case study provides fascinating evidence of how continuity and progression can be achieved, but more importantly the case studies show how teachers operating creatively can provide high quality education for nursery and infant pupils ... At the level of practice the book is to be highly recommended.' - John Lee, Escalate

'This book makes a valuable contribution to the literature on the curriculum for 3-7 year olds and will help practitioners to see how continuity and progression can be planned and tracked through the Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1 even when settings are not all within one institution ... This book will certainly be of interest to tutors and mentors involved in teacher training as well as practitioners and students in a range of settings.' - Early Years

'Information on curriculum rationale, activities, assessment, and collaboration, and questions and issues raised by the study will provide a rich discussion for professionals at all levels of early childhood education.' - Childhood Education
