![]() | Learning to Belong: Exploring Young Children's Participation at the Start of School Taking young children seriously demands a high level of confidence and leadership in early years practitioners, and the author provides a convincing, well researched rationale for using this approach in early years contexts. The chapters * demonstrate the importance of listening to the voices of the children, *nbsp;use examples of the type of questions which children might ask when they first enter school, which are presented as 'windows' into children's experiences via key moments or incidents in the school day This book is an important addition to debate about the politics and ethics of a highly prescribed and mainly developmentally-informed early years curriculum.nbsp; Researchers and students of early childhood education will find much here of interest to them.
