However, today′s emphasis on early exposure to academic content means little attention is given to developing the affective skills that can make a critical difference in a child′s future. Based on her extensive experience in early childhood education, Patricia A. Dischler bridges the gap and demonstrates how incorporating the three Cs—creativity, curiosity, and courtesy—into classroom instruction can support the development of academic skills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis resource shows how to promote school readiness by giving children a \u003ci\u003edesire\u003c\/i\u003e to learn, teaching them \u003ci\u003ehow\u003c\/i\u003e to learn, and nurturing empathy, emotional intelligence, and problem solving.
