Summary of Children's Play: The Roots of Reading
Extensive empirical research has documented the value of play for both cognitive and social development. Play-guided by teachers, child care providers, and parents-can contribute to emerging literacy by motivating a child to learn the cognitive and social skills necessary for success in kindergarten and the early elementary school years. This book demonstrates the importance of play in helping children learn basic literacy skills, social awareness, and creative problem solving.General Books
