Spiritual Experiences in Early Childhood Education: Four Kindergartners, One Classroom

Jennifer Mata

4.9/5 (22819 ratings)

Description:Spiritual topics are frequently avoided in the public school classroom in an attempt to avoid controversy. However, by ignoring, preventing, or discounting spirituality, educators can also inhibit children's spiritual development. Based on qualitative research and interactions with both children and adults, Jennifer Mata argues that educators should be responsible for addressing spiritual matters in the classroom, and for re-introducing these topics into the early childhood curriculum in particular.By surveying the existing literature on spirituality, Mata first offers a working definition of spirituality as an essential characteristic of humanness, which connects the individual to others and to the transcendent. The book uses the stories of four real kindergartners to explore different modes of spiritual education and, in turn, to examine what spirituality might look like in a classroom setting. Finally, Spiritual Experiences in Early Childhood Education offers classroom strategies and learning objectives for teachers who wish to nourish spirituality in the children they work with.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
