Getting To Know City Kids: Understanding Their Thinking, Imagining AndSocializing
- Used Book in Good Condition
This book challenges the prevailing misconception that poor city kids are "troubled, " "passive, " and "dumb." Guided by the children (ages 8 to 12), the author goes behind the scenes to unveil the breadth and depth of their curiosity, industry, and imagination. This revealing study will stimulate alternative approaches to looking at children's capacities to learn, urging teachers to build on and extend the complexity of children's play as it relates to the intellectual work of the classroom.
