Learning to Learn Zusammenfassung

Learning to Learn Sally Featherstone

This book will help you to understand what works for the growing brain, and (even more important) what doesn't! It is more and more evident that HOW children learn is much more important then WHAT they learn. Babies are born with a drive to learn, but as babies become children this drive can falter. What are the keys to keeping the momentum going, so children are ready for each stage of their childhood as they reach it? We can influence the quality of learning, without buying specialist DVDs, choosing expensive toys or becoming a `helicopter adult" hovering over children and controlling everything they do. Busy parents and practitioners can make sure that the times they have with children are both enjoyable in the present and useful in the future. This book introduces you to some of the things that affect children's learning, explains these in readable terms, and gives you simple ways of making sure that children get the best start in their lifelong learning journey.

Learning to Learn Bewertungen

Learning to Learn offers a very readable perspective on children's development and life chances through the eyes of Sally Featherstone, an educator with heart! Providing insights into the many influences on children's lives, she considers the seven ages of the child from before birth up to age seven - analysing some of the key features that will support them to grow and to learn. * Ann Langston, Director of Early Years Matters Ltd *
This book celebrates how the 'process' is more important than the end product, in terms of how children learn...by using our own common sense, a few practical hints, tips and strategies shared in this book, we can enjoy the lifelong journey of learning alongside the children in our care... -- Martine Horvath * Early Years Educator magazine *
As clear and focused as all her other work...it cleverly brings together biological, physiological and psychological information about the initial stages of the learning journey. It would be a valuable read for any practitioner. -- Mary Briggs * Programme Lead for Early Years and Primary ITE *
Really useful resource with plenty of real life examples/case studies to make links between theory and practice. -- Joy Chalke * Principal Lecturer *
