Nurturing Self-Regulation in Early Childhood (eBook, ePUB)

Adopting an Ethos and Approach

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Nurturing Self-Regulation in Early Childhood explores how young children develop self-regulation and offers practical guidance on helping them to manage their feelings and behaviour. It considers the skills, attitudes and dispositions children need to be able to self-regulate and how their wellbeing and self-esteem can affect their ability to do this.

Grimmer and Geens show how schools and settings can adopt an ethos where self-regulation permeates their whole provision. Considering the broad and multifaceted nature of self-regulation and how this key area of development shapes children and their learning, the chapters cover:

• developing empathy
• emotion coaching
• the practitioner as a co-regulator
• executive function and the sense of self and wellbeing
• international approaches to promoting self-regulation
• the role of the adult and environment in encouraging skills for self-regulation
• working effectively with parents and carers to ensure a consistent approach

With a focus on developmentally appropriate expectations, this book is essential reading for all early childhood educators who want to develop their understanding of self-regulation and embrace an approach that underpins their practice and changes children's lives.
