Pay Attention to the Children: Lessons for Teachers and Parents from Sylvia Ashton-Warner
$15.00
This book, about Sylvia Ashton-Warner’s ideas and how they informed mine, continues to go back to teaching experience and how we can learn from it. The chapters are somewhat longer, the theory more developed. I wrote it because I had to … I couldn’t explain myself and why I teach the way I do without explaining Sylvia. It has two chapters on discipline and two on stories … where they come from and their use in teaching. The work I did around Sylvia’s ideas, and those of Vivian Gussin Paley, briefly discussed in this book, led me directly to the Reggio Emilia work I now do.
