Children in their first three years of life learn, develop and grow at a faster rate than at any other time, with early childhood teachers and educators playing a vital role in providing them with the very best learning opportunities. Intentional Practice with Infants and Toddlers focuses on purposeful pedagogical approaches, equipping pre-service and practising early childhood teachers and educators with the professional knowledge and strategies required to implement effective infant and toddler pedagogies in early childhood education settings. Drawing on a growing body of research and evidence, the book covers topics such as educational programs, pedagogy as care, health and physical wellbeing, creating a language-rich environment, establishing social cultures, and documenting, planning for and communicating learning. Features include spotlight boxes to explore relevant research, theories and practices; vignettes to open each chapter; reflection questions; and links to the Early Years Learning Framework and National Quality Standards.
