The Languages of Learning: How Children Talk, Write, Dance, Draw, and Sing Their Understanding of the World
Karen Gallas
Item #:
9780807733059
In The Languages of Learning Karen Gallas offers a new
approach to
understanding how young children in early and elementary
grades communicate
their knowledge of the world and the ways in which that kind
of understanding can
transform the education process. In addition to expanding
the traditional
definition
of narrative to include all forms of expression, the book also
offers an original
conceptualisation of what a classroom community is and how it
is shaped. The
book introduces new models for learning about science as well
as an argument for,
and description of, how the arts can transform the traditional
science curriculum.
Finally, Gallas
describes, first hand, the process of doing teacher research,
and what distinguishes
that process from other kinds of educational research.
