Description
In a globalized world of twenty-four-hour news coverage, regional trade agreements, and growing international business, creating an understanding of the world through developmentally appropriate curricula is essential. By linking theory to practice with an emphasis on national and state standards, Head Start Performance Standards, No Child Left Behind, and IDEA, Gayle Mindes coherently combines principles of child development and social studies content to create a solid program for preschool through grade 3. She maintains the overriding idea that strategies derived from knowledge of child development are used to teach content knowledge. It is this concern that makes this volume an excellent resource for teachers and parents. In addition to specific discussions of how to build and conduct a social studies curriculum, the work includes vignettes of teachers and children in the classroom; graphics illustrating concepts and methods; and matrices, charts, and tables to enhance understanding.
