This book explores pedagogical practices for early childhood education around the world in a collective of practices. The motivation for this book was to collect pedagogical practices from around the world to showcase the important work of early childhood teachers. Each country in this book shares unique features of their pedagogical work to show how they support young children’s learning and development, and work with families and communities. This intention also allows the documentation of innovative and exemplary practices to build a repertoire of pedagogy and understand cultural and contextual differences. Across the countries, this book explores routines, transitions, intentional teaching, shaping the environment, and other important aspects of learning and care. This book also provides opportunities for the development of commonality of practice, and to explore variations that exist around supporting young children’s learning and development.
