Specially commissioned articles written by experts in the field of early childhood education, and by students in early childhood studies programs, provide a range of perspectives on early childhood education. Theory is translated into practice through the use of classroom examples and students' voices, with discussion of symbolic play, anti-racist policies, listening to young children, early reading and writing, and partnerships with parents. The editor works for the Independent Examinations Board as manager of the National Pilot Project on Early Childhood Development in Johannesburg, South Africa. Annotation c.
