Summary "This volume examines the emotional world of the early childhood classroom as it affects both students, whose emotional wellbeing is crucial to successful learning, and educators, for whom teaching is never a solely cognitive act. In a culture where issues such as bullying and teacher burnout both comprise major challenges to student success, this book brings together diverse voices (researchers, practitioners, children, and parents) and multiple theoretical perspectives (sociocultural, critical, developmental, and behavioral) to refocus attention on the pivotal role of emotion in schools. To do so, editors Samara Madrid, David Fernie, and Rebecca Kantor envision emotion as a dynamic, fluid, and negotiated construct, performed and produced in the daily lives of children and adults alike. A nuanced yet cohesive analysis, Reframing the Emotional Worlds of the Early Childhood Classroom thus presents a challenge to the overriding concern with quantifiable classroom achievement that increasingly threatens to push the emotional lives of classroom participants to the margins of educational and public discourse"-- Provided by publisher
