You know what it’s like to spend time with youngsters who are particularly
puzzling or hard to help. When Young Children Need Help helps early childhood

in his or her care. This engaging book encourages a collaborative approach and

on in school or in care remains central to making progress. When Young Children
Need Help offers its perspectives and strategies through highly readable stories that
bring children with challenges alive in all their quirky uniqueness. Age focus: 3-6.

North American educators were first introduced to the idea of pedagogical
documentation through work of the preschools of Reggio Emilia, Italy.
Canadian and U.S. educators have responded with an eager desire to try the
process within their own practices. Nevertheless, producing documentation that
is thoughtful, meaningful, and aesthetically pleasing is a challenge. Pedagogical
Documentation—fi lled with examples from the author as well as new and
seasoned educators from across North America—will guide you through the
process. Pedagogical documentation is an examination of the learning taking
place in children and supports reflective practice and decision-making in
teachers. Pedagogical documentation is a powerful tool for communicating a
child’s learning to families. Age focus: 3-8. Softbound, 144 pgs.
