Enthusiastic and engaged learners : approaches to learning in the early childhood classroom / Marilou Hyson ; foreword by Sue Bredekamp.
"This new resource will help early childhood professionals implement strategies to support young children's positive approaches to learning-their enthusiasm (interest, joy, and motivation to learn) and their engagement (attention, persistence, flexibility, self-regulation, and other essential learning behaviors). Along with extensive research, the text includes images of practice in early education programs in culturally, economically, and linguistically diverse settings."--Jacket.
