Fantastic - and the CDrom has been overused. Great book with handouts for my students
A very useful book which I did recommend for our students on the health and Well-being module which was a core module for our ECS degree. This module has now closed but the book has been transferred to another module which is also core for our second year course
May be too basic for some students but this book will help students who did not have any special needs knowledge in EY settings.
A great text for exploring this topic, particularly from a practitioner's perspective.
This is a practical and useful book which is extremely helpful to all those working in early years. It addresses how special needs can be identified and supported across different areas of provision and suggests practical ways of supporting children with special needs. The CD Rom provides an alternative means of accessing the material, which should appeal to all types of learners.
