[Exploring Childhood materials comprise four distinct modules, three curricular and one in support. The 'map' of each module is presented at the beginning of every Teacher's Guide belonging to that module. Below is a copy of one of these maps, providing links to those materials in that module that have been placed on this Web site.]

The Working With Children Module

The goals of this module for Exploring Childhood teachers are the following:

To prepare students for work at fieldsites. Materials and suggested activities are intended to help students start their field work feeling confident about their roles: by becoming familiar with children's material and children's settings; by practicing skills for working with children; by coming to see themselves as resources for understanding child development; and by becoming close to children.
To build a cooperative support group among teachers and students.
To support students' continuing growth and ability to help children.
