A focal point of early childhood education is how young children
build knowledge and the ways that practitioners, parents and carers
can help them to do so. Many adults find it challenging to identify
what knowledge young children are building and how they do so,
making it difficult to support young children's learning and
development in the most effective ways. This essential guide will
help you to identify and develop young children's knowledge and
understanding in early years settings, not only in terms of
statutory requirements but far beyond them. Building Knowledge in
Early Childhood Education draws on empirical research findings from
the Young Children As Researchers (YCAR) project to examine
everyday activities and reveal the means that young children use to
build knowledge and understanding, as well as exploring the
similarities between learning behaviours in early childhood and
adult life. Interweaving everyday activities in practice with
research and theory, this book covers: how young children construct
knowledge; learning, problem-solving and exploring; concepts and
conceptualising in early childhood; evidence-based decision-making;
how young children behave as researchers. Offering practical advice
and suggestions to create opportunities that identify and
facilitate young children's own constructions of knowledge and
understanding, this book is essential reading for practitioners,
students and all those interested in the theories surrounding young
children as researchers.
