This book embraces the concept of planning in the moment and emphasizes the critical role of the adult in promoting child-led learning, giving early years practitioners the confidence and insight to work and plan in the moment, and enabling the children in their care to live, learn, play, and develop in the present.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlanning in the Moment with Young Children maintains a strong link to practice, providing numerous examples of how practitioners can integrate spontaneous planning and rich adult-child interactions into their everyday practice and early years curricula. From timetabling to setting clear rules, creating enabling environments, keeping records, and making use of a variety of materials, the book demonstrates the multitude of ways in which practitioners can encourage child autonomy and respond to the unique needs of each child. Examples from practice are rooted in theory, fully contextualized, and exemplified by original documentation sourced from the authors' own experiences and from a wide variety of settings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKey features include:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOver 180 full-color photographs to illustrate practice;\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePhotocopiable pages including planning sheets, documentation, and activity sheets;\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdvice on working with parents, individual children, and groups;\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTailored guidance on working with children at different stages of development from birth to age 6 years;\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRelevance to a range of settings, including childminders, pre-schools, nurseries, and schools.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen children are allowed to select where, with what, and how to play, they are truly invested in their play and learning. They are more likely to retain information, develop problem-solving skills, and build self-esteem. Adult supervision and guidance can help foster this sense of autonomy and encourage children to explore and learn in their own way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, planning in the moment with young children is essential for promoting their learning and development. By embracing the concept of child-led learning and providing practitioners with the confidence and insight to work and plan in the moment, we can help children live, learn, play, and develop in the present. By incorporating spontaneous planning and rich adult-child interactions into practice, we can create enabling environments that support children's autonomy and encourage their natural curiosity and creativity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 560g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 297 x 212 x 9 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781138080393\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AnnaEphgrave","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44104817770746,"sku":"9781138080393","price":24.74,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/021b7c4a6f6460c87aeebb9edebb7e1f.jpg?v=1630121837","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/planning-in-the-moment-with-young-children-a-practical-guide-for-early-years-practitioners-and-parents","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
