Who Am I in the Lives of Children? an Introduction to Early Childhood Education

Who Am I in the Lives of Children? takes a constructivist approach to early childhood education (birth to grade 3) that speaks to each child's strengths, interests and challenges. Personal, engaging stories and authentic children's artifacts are paired with research-based principles and day-to-day classroom strategies. The child-centered approach helps you learn effective methods to support each child's learning in ways that are in harmony with who they are, rather than a predetermined plan.

The 12th Edition includes new research, discussions of the impact of COVID-19, professional practice features, and updated NAEYC standards. Enhanced content focuses on equity and inclusiveness to help you become a more competent advocate for your students.
