Early Childhood Programs

About the Book

Broadbent describes programs she created and taught to combined first and second grade classes. Chapters include descriptions of programs designed to address a wide range of ages, intellectual levels, and abilities without limits for achievement - programs that parallel opportunities for healthy cognitive growth. Children were involved in self- initiated learning through exploration, discovery and experimentation, and motivating academic programs. Many programs, with a different level of achievement, are appropriate for younger, older, and gifted students. Upon reading this book, another teacher may either adapt all or part of these programs as written or using the design of these programs, create one's own.
