As children develop a sense of self and the ability to self-regulate, they are better able to persist in literacy and maths activities. Likewise, as children develop their literacy and numeracy skills, they will grow in confidence and independence, strengthening their sense of agency.
The Deans for Impact have summarised current cognitive-science research related to how young children (from birth to 8) develop the skills of literacy, numeracy and controlling their own behaviour and intentions.
Based on clearly referenced research, and relevant to anyone in education interested in these key development areas, the report highlights the principle questions and answers about learning. Crucially, the report connects these to practical ways of using specific teaching strategies.
...a starting point for educators, teachers, parents, and caregivers who wish to explore principles of learning science as they relate to young children.
