Early childhood is a period of rapid development in multiple domains, including language, literacy, mathematics, and motor skills. Understanding which teaching strategies are most effective and when can have a profound impact on a child's growth and future success.

Visible Learning in Early Childhood delves into the crucial years between ages 3 and 6, drawing upon evidence from the Visible Learning® research. It presents seven core strategies for learning success: working together as evaluators, setting high expectations, measuring learning with explicit success criteria, establishing developmentally appropriate levels of learning, viewing mistakes as opportunities, continually seeking feedback, and balancing surface, deep, and transfer learning.

The authors explore the interconnectedness of these seven principles through authentic examples of diverse learners and settings. Voices of master teachers from the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia contribute their expertise, sharing valuable insights and strategies. Multiple assessment and differentiation strategies are discussed, encompassing mathematics, literacy, art, music, social-emotional learning, and other subject areas.

By utilizing the Visible Learning research, teachers partner with children to foster high expectations, implement developmentally appropriate practices, provide the right level of challenge, and emphasize explicit success criteria. By embracing these strategies, educators can create an environment that nurtures and supports young learners, enabling them to thrive and reach their full potential.
