Young Children's Behaviour: Practical Approaches for Caregivers and Teachers - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A caring relationship is the most powerful tool for guiding young children's behaviour. This is the message that underpins the second edition of "Young Children's Behaviour: Practical Approaches for Caregivers and Teachers". In a clear and accessible style, Louise Porter advocates a "guidance approach" and shows how sensitive, child-centred communication can foster behaviour that is thoughtful and considerate in young children. Important topics include: theoretical foundations for guiding children; children's emotional and social needs; strategies for dealing with inconsiderate behaviour; behavioural challenges - social and play difficulties, developmental problems and family issues; and staff support, partnerships with parents, and policy development. Drawing on her experience as a psychologist, academic, consultant and parent, Louise Porter offers a wealth of practical guidance which is effective, sensible, direct and always empathic to young children's needs. This text should be of use to students of education and child care workers, and to all those who are interested in children's behaviour and development.
