Professionals in early years settings can use this book to focus on
ways in which they can work collaboratively with colleagues, in
order to help children with communication difficulties to
understand and express themselves more fully. It brings together
the most useful examples of good practice and draws on the work of
reflective practitioners. There are many illustrative case studies
provided and it discusses how to observe children's daily
interactions, ways in which such observations can be used to
improve communication skills; how play can be an important part of
improvement; behavior management and support; and literacy
development. The practical applications are highlighted throughout
the book and the advice given comes directly from those working in
early years settings. It should be of great interest to all nursery
teachers, teaching assistants, speech and language therapists and
parents wishing to play an active part in their children's
development of language and communication skills.
An essential part of children's development in the early years
involves creative engagement through language, gestures, body
movements, drawing, music, and creating shared meanings in playful
contexts. Supporting Children's Creativity through Music, Dance,
Drama and Art brings together contributions from a range of early
years practitioners and professionals, sharing their 'creative
conversations' and helping readers to implement the themes of the
Early Years Foundation Stage framework in a creative way. Including
a new chapter to explore the relationships between music and
movement, this second edition has been fully updated and covers:
How to incorporate music-making and storytelling in the classroom
How to use stories of practice to inspire reflection and change How
to extend, challenge and sustain children's interests How to make
use of the 'Talking Table' and 'Helicopter' approaches How to
become an effective play-partner How to improve practice with
interactive strategies and music for well-being How to use
observation to inspire planning and learning projects. Appealing to
all with an interest in early years practice, this new edition
demonstrates how parents, carers and practitioners can put
excitement and inspiration back into the learning process, guiding
them to encourage and support the creative capacities of young
children.
