Encounters with Materials in Early Childhood Education

This text rearticulates understandings of materials-blocks of clay, sheets of paper, brushes and paints-to formulate new ideas about what happens when we apply them to early childhood development and classrooms. The new second edition includes new materials, such as choreographies with fabrics and the process of reparation with plastics.
