Synopsis

Early Years Essentials offers a wealth of evidence-based strategies and ideas to enhance the learning and development of young children. Linked to the EYFS framework and drawing on a wide range of case studies from across the sector, it shows what excellent provision looks like in practice alongside summaries of key research.

Each chapter includes a ‘pondering question’ which offers the reader the opportunity to reflect on their own knowledge, as well as providing a framework to consider how to enhance their own teaching skills. Covering all aspects of early years practice, the chapters include:

  • The indoor and outdoor learning environment
  • Observation, planning, and assessment
  • Working with parents and carers
  • The prime and specific areas of learning
  • Adult-child interactions
  • The characteristics of effective learning
  • Inclusion and diversity
  • Child and practitioner wellbeing

Including reflective questions and key takeaways in every chapter, this essential text will support student and practitioner knowledge and understanding of how the EYFS principles can be effectively embedded into best practice.
