Reflective Teaching in Early Education

Written by a collaborative author team of leading early years educationalists and practitioners, the book offers both comprehensive practical guidance on building relationships, communication, behaviour, inclusion, curriculum planning and learning, and evidence-based aids to understanding of the theories informing practice.

The book draws on research, including Teaching and Learning Research Programme findings. There is also a companion reader, Readings for Reflective Teaching in Early Education, edited by Jennifer Colwell and Andrew Pollard, which draws together extracts and contemporary literature from international sources from books and journals to support both initial study and extended later learning for early years practitioners.
