The book is set into different chapters with each one covering different schemas. It begins with a short summary of learning theory and how schemas have been explored by different people throughout the years. For each schema there are some sample observations alongside Early Years outcomes linked to ages and stages development statements. There are examples of what you could do to help further develop that schema for each areas of the eyfs, with practical options to put in provision for a variety of ages.
It's a good, basic start.

Excellent resource on schemas that starts off with useful theories followed by how these feed into the practice.
The photos, the layout, the case studies and different schemas for different stages are all great.
The presentation and layout make it easy to follow and implement the content.

I'm really glad I received this book. It's not a new release I recognised the front cover from my previous studies at university. This book is very informative and gives a lot of very helpful information on childhood schemas and is great for education professionals. I am a teacher but I am also a new first time mum so this was great reminding for me watching my toddler at play!
