Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Literacy of Play and Innovation provides a portrait of what innovative education for your children looks like from a literacy perspective. Through an in-depth case study of a "maker" school’s innovative design—in particular, of four early childhood educator’s classrooms—this book demonstrates that children’s inspiration, curiosity, and creativity is a direct result of the school environment. By presenting a unique, data-driven model of literacy, play, and innovation that takes the maker movement beyond STEM education, this book will help readers understand literacy learning through making and the creative approaches embedded in early literacy classroom practices.
