Pre-K Stories
Playing with Authorship and Integrating Curriculum in Early Childhood
Dana Frantz Bentley , Mariana Souto-Manning
Education / Early Childhood (incl. Preschool & Kindergarten)
Pre-K Stories offers a lively exploration of how one classroom community played with and collaboratively engaged in authorship. Through everyday stories, readers are invited to witness and engage with classroom practices that honor young children’s brilliance and build on their questions, interests, and strengths. Weaving together literacy, language arts, social studies, science, mathematics, and more, the authors illustrate how curriculum can be authentically and meaningfully integrated. They also offer a unique perspective on the development of language and literacy practices by framing children’s play narratives as the foundation from which rich curricula can grow. Pre-K Stories allows readers to experience the rich cadence of a classroom while also coming to understand important theories that undergird early childhood teaching and young children’s learning.
