Title: Young Children Learning.
Description: Cambridge, MA : Harvard University Press, 1984. Hardcover. Dustjacket. 288 pp.The book describes a research study in which four-year-old girls were tape-recorded talking to their mothers at home and to their teachers at nursery school. At home the children range freely over a wide variety of topics--work, the family, birth, growing up, death. They talk about plans for the future and puzzle over such diverse topics as the shapes of roofs and chairs, the nature of Father Christmas, and whether the queen wears curlers in bed. In many conversations the children are actively struggling to understand a new idea or the meaning of an unfamiliar word. These passages of intellectual search show the children to be persistent and logical thinkers.English text. Condition : very good. Mailorder only - Alleen verzending mogelijk.
