Biddy Youell,Jonathan Bradley: Understanding 8-9-year-olds

Understanding 8-9-year-olds


Description

Understanding 8-9-Year-Olds describes how children grow and change as they move further away from reliance on home and family, out into the world of school and community. Children of this age develop preferences as well as opinions based on their experience of new relationships and activities. For many children, it is a period of relative calm as they develop through new skills while accumulating knowledge. Biddy Youell looks at the ways in which eight and nine year olds experience their world and highlights some of the difficulties that may hinder their emotional, social or educational development. This accessible book provides valuable insights that will help parents, educators and carers better understand and relate to children during these middle years of childhood.

The first historically and internationally comprehensive collection of its kind, "Essayists on the Essay" is a path-breaking work that is nothing less than a richly varied sourcebook for anyone interested in the theory, practice, and art of the essay. This unique work includes a selection of fifty distinctive pieces by American, Canadian, English, European, and South American essayists from Montaigne to the present many of which have not previously been anthologized or translated as well as a detailed bibliographical and thematic guide to hundreds of additional works about Understanding 8-9-year-olds free epub the essay.From a buoyant introduction that provides a sweeping historical and analytic overview of essayists thinking about their genre a collective poetics of the essay to the detailed headnotes offering pointed information about both the essayists themselves and the anthologized selections, to the richly detailed bibliographic sections, "Essayists on the Essay" is essential to anyone who cares about the form.This collection provides teachers, scholars, essayists, and readers with the materials they need to take a fresh look at this important but often overlooked form that has for too long been relegated to the role of service genre used primarily to write about other more literary genres or to teach young people how to write. Here, in a single celebratory volume, are four centuries of commentary and theory reminding us of the essay s storied history, its international appeal, and its relationship not just with poetry and fiction but also with radio, film, video, and new media."
