By linking theory to practice with an emphasis on national and
state standards, Head Start Performance Standards, No Child Left
Behind, and IDEA, the authors coherently combine principles of
child development and social studies content to create a solid
program for preschool through grade three. The authors maintain the
overriding idea throughout the Teaching Young Children series-that
strategies derived from knowledge of child development are used to
teach content knowledge. It is this concern that makes this volume
an excellent resource for teachers and parents. In addition to
specific discussions of how to build and conduct a social studies
curriculum, the work includes vignettes of teachers and children in
the classroom; graphics illustrating concepts and methods; and
matrices, charts and tables to enhance understanding. The authors
effectively intertwine social learning in young children and
development of self-concept with the theme-based curriculum of the
National Council for Social Studies, the principles of
multicultural education, parent collaboration to support learning,
and creating connections between classroom and community. In a
globalized world of 24-hour news coverage, regional trade
agreements, and growing international business, creating an
understanding of the world through developmentally appropriate
curricula is essential.
