Hi Tricia
ReplyDeleteAll the additional resources you added seem very interesting, but would definitely like to look into Smart Kids with Learning Difficulties.I know I'll be able to use a lot of information for my students and my own son.
Hi Tricia,
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing a variety of different resources that cover different aspects of the early childhood field.I look forward to read "The Strong Willed Child" by Dr.James Dobson.
Hello Tricia,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these resources. These are genuinely wonderful resources that early childhood educators can use to assist them to improve their teaching. I am hoping to read the book, ‘The Five Love Languages of Children’ so that I can have a better understanding of the various languages of children. Most parents try to communicate love to their children, sometimes the message is received and other times it is missed. Everything depends on the love relationship between you and your child. When children feel loved, they do their best.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful variety of resources. Now I will increase my list of resources. Definitely I will look for the book: The five languages of Children. It capture my attention. Thank you once again.
