Description

This integrative text spotlights what educators need to know about children's cognitive development across grade levels (PreK-12) and content areas.

The book provides a concise introduction to developmental neuroscience and theories of learning.

Chapters on general cognitive abilities probe such crucial questions as what children are capable of remembering at different ages, what explains differences in effort and persistence, and how intelligence and aptitudes relate to learning.

Domain-specific chapters focus on the development of key academic skills in reading, writing, math, science, and history.

Multiple influences on academic achievement and motivation are explored, including school, family, cultural, and socioeconomic factors.

Each chapter concludes with clear implications for curriculum and instruction.
