Description

Cathy Nutbrown explores the ways in which young children think and learn, revealing their active and dynamic approach to understanding the world. Through detailed observation and numerous examples, she demonstrates how children's patterns of learning and thinking - or schemas - shape their experiences in areas such as literacy, maths and science. This new edition of Threads of Thinking includes fresh insights into early years and primary practice, as well as a new chapter on professional development. Nutbrown's work provides valuable guidance for early years practitioners seeking to support and develop children's learning.
