Constructive Guidance and Discipline : Birth to Age Eight, with Enhanced Pearson eText -- Access Card Package

For courses in Guidance / Management of Young Children.

Positive approaches focused on treating the causes of behavior problems to help young children become happy, responsible, productive people.

This book presents guidance and discipline concepts within a framework of child development, developmentally appropriate practices, and constructivist education to give early childhood educators the best approaches available for nurturing children for success. Focusing on what is best for young children, rather than merely presenting an impartial overview of various approaches, the authors stress helping adults to effectively assist children’s moral development without using the coercive approaches of punishment or behavior modification. The emphasis is on guidance for children ages three through eight. This new edition includes new invitations to reflect, tables and figures, careful documentation and careful explanations of the principles, as well as a stronger balance of preschool and primary-grade level examples. As before, it includes examples of infants and toddlers as well, addressing the needs expressed by higher education programs to address guidance for young children from birth to age eight. The new Enhanced eText provides students with access to digital self-assessments, video-based exercises with questions and feedback, and video examples.
