This week we're covering chapter eight from Lisa Murphy on Being Child Centered . The philosophical attribute of being child-centered in this chapter is, "Adults Are Aware of the Importance of Keeping it Real." We discuss the importance of real, relevant experiences for the young children we work with. No more plastic apples, cookie cutter craftivities, and worksheets! Give them real apples to pick, cut, eat, paint with, mash, bake, and describe! Or don't even learn about apples! If it's not relevant or interesting to your preschool students, you shouldn't be teaching about it. Lisa Murphy is fired up in this chapter and we're loving it.
