Opis

Timely and thoroughly updated, the second edition of Early Years Education and Care in Canada explores the histories, philosophies, theories, and approaches that have shaped the ways that we teach and care for children in Canada. Featuring multiple voices and first-hand experiences in the field, contributions from Canadian academics and practitioners engage in theoretical and practical discussions on early childhood education and care. The new edition of this volume continues to provide readers with a map of the theoretical landscape of early years practice and research and explores newly added topics including common worlds pedagogies, reclaiming Indigenous family systems, supporting Black flourishing in early childhood education and care, critical feminist examination of play, and lived experiences of registered early childhood educators and the Early Childhood Education and Care system. Readers will explore where we have been, where we are, and where we might go in practice and research related to children and families, making this a fundamental resource for all students, practitioners, and policymakers in early childhood education and care.
