Documentation and Inquiry in the Early Childhood Classroom explores teacher inquiry, reflection, and research and the documentation of these processes within a variety of school sites and models. Compiling underrepresented inquiry stories from practicing teachers and administrators in early childhood (0-5) classrooms in the San Francisco Bay Area, this book highlights the power of the community in supporting professional development for early childhood educators and the education of young children. Important elements addressed include teacher learning, children's curricula, parent and community communication, and equity and social justice for teachers, children, and families.

Industry Reviews

"Documentation and Inquiry in the Early Childhood Classroom is destined to become a classic in the field. The book represents an extraordinary qualitative leap in the long tradition of early childhood educators paying close attention to the actions of young children. Drawing from the best recent research around practitioner inquiry, self-study, and documentation, and bringing in the voices of practitioners who are immersed in studying their work, the book offers teachers, researchers, administrators and policy-makers powerful lenses for understanding the complexity of the early childhood classroom. It is so clear, well organized, and relevant that it could easily be used across the grades with teachers at every level contributing their research to enable a growing understanding of the relationship between policy and practice."
