`It is always good to be able to welcome a book on such a key factor as movement in early childhood development, and this text has been written to support parents and practitioners who wish to understand how movement contributes to all aspects of learning -intellectual, social and emotional, as well as physical' - Marian Whitehead, Nursery World
This book is particularly beneficial for Practitioners in early education, providing clear guidance on the benefits of movement in Early education for children with dyspraxia. The book would make a useful resource for Parents, Practitioners and students studying Undergrad and Postgrad SEN programmes, and will provide support for non specialist teachers working to support children in their classrooms in a positive way.
A strong text which provides support for parents and practitioners who wish to understand how movement contributes to all aspects of learning -intellectual, social and emotional, as well as physical.
