Ebook: Geography in the Early Years

Palmser and Birch (both U. of Durham) explore the teaching of geography not in the early years of human intellect or of the discipline, but among children aged three to seven. For nursery and early elementary school teachers, they overview some of the more theoretical aspects and illustrate them with recent research findings, discussions, case studies, and suggestions for practice. The underlying context is the National Curriculum for Schools in England.
