Planning and Administering Early Childhood Programs (8th Edition)

This practical and leading book offers a solid overview of what is involved in carefully planning and running quality early childhood programs. The authors believe that the lack of real quality in today's early childhood programs should be of paramount concern to future administrators, and so have created a book that will aid them in the initial planning of quality programs and serve as a helpful resource once programs are underway. Coverage is organized to illustrate, step-by-step, the way directors of early childhood programs must approach their role; examining, in turn, planning, operationalizing, and implementing high-quality programs for all young children. For administrative personnel at the elementary school level.
