Taylor & Francis Ltd The Bridge to School
Book SynopsisThe Bridge to School provides concise, targeted information for teachers who work in PreK, Transitional Kindergarten, or Kindergarten settings, covering both the why and the how of play in classrooms, along with insights into how the normal development of 4-to-6-year-olds is manifested and how teachers can harness and work with those typical needs and behaviors. This powerful professional resource includes theories of child development, brain development, and the value of play-based learning, but the majority of the content is practical classroom strategies that fall in line with ECERS and allow for appropriate academic skill building. Trade ReviewThe Bridge to School is a must-read for anyone interested in having a window into what high quality, developmentally responsive PreK and transitional Kindergarten programs look like from the inside. Through rich descriptions of early learning environments and expansive descriptions of practical strategies, readers are introduced to the nuts and bolts of programs and classrooms that optimally support young children's brain and whole body development. Teachers and administrators charged with creating PreK and TK programs that truly build the cognitive, social-emotional, and physical skills and knowledge that children need for future educational success will find The Bridge to School to be the most valuable, inspiring, and essential roadmap to guide their way.Julie Nicholson, Ph.D., Deputy Director, WestEd, Center for Child and Family Studies, and Associate Professor of Practice, Mills College, School of EducationTable of ContentsPrefaceChapter 1.

Taylor & Francis Play Therapy Today Contemporary Practice with
Book SynopsisPlay Therapy Today brings together the work of renowned practitioners and academics currently working and researching in therapeutic play and play therapy, and presents a range of ground-breaking methods for practising with groups, individuals, and parents and carers.Providing an overview of new or revitalised topics in play therapy, each chapter presents the relevant theoretical underpinnings and principles of practice, a guide to implementing the method and case study vignettes of the approach in practice. The three sections include chapters on: the Therapeutic Touchstone model and the development of the therapeutic relationship, an overview of the use of individual play therapy techniques with children in a hospital setting, and an overview of Yasenik and Gardnerâs Play Therapy Dimensions Model with an in-depth exploration of the dimension of consciousness from both a theoretical and practical, play-based orientation. Jenningsâ Embodiment-Project-Role model and its implementation in group work, the practical use of puppets in educational and therapeutic settings, the therapeutic value of working with groups in the outdoors, and the use of play in groups for children with a variety of sensory, intellectual and physical disabilities. Stagnittiâs adaptation of the âLearn to Playâ programme for parent/carer use, Group Theraplay with peer groups and parent/child dyads and how a neurosequential approach supports case conceptualization and play therapy practice with families. The book provides practitioners with up-to-date, effective and practical techniques that they can put into immediate use in their clinical work with children and their families. It is an important resource for trainee, newly qualified and seasoned play therapists, play therapy supervisors and trainers. It will also be of interest to social workers, teachers, psychologists, child psychotherapists and other health professionals.Trade Review‘A comprehensive presentation of current practices in the field of Play Therapy. Highly recommended!’ – Charles E. Schaefer, Ph.D., RPT-S, Cofounder & Director Emeritus, the Association for Play Therapy.‘What a wonderful new addition to our field! Each chapter is authored by an experienced clinician and expert in the topic and it clearly shows. It is refreshing to read clearly articulated approaches with case examples. The result is the ability to easily put the information into action. In fact, I used two of the techniques right away with current clients. Another chapter assisted me in viewing a client in a new way, assisting to facilitate more effective treatment. What a delight. I believe this book will be found valuable by both the new and seasoned play therapist.’ – Linda E.
