520			_aThe Early Childhood Curriculum: Inquiry Learning Through Integration by Suzanne L. Krogh and Pamela Morehouse is a comprehensive textbook that explains how inquiry-based learning and curriculum integration can support the development of young children from preschool through the primary grades. The book emphasizes that children learn best when they actively explore, ask questions, investigate ideas, and connect learning across different subject areas rather than studying subjects separately. The authors combine educational theory, child development research, and practical teaching strategies to help educators design meaningful, child-centered learning experiences. The text discusses major curriculum areas such as language and literacy, mathematics, science, social studies, art, music, movement, and dramatic play, showing how these subjects can be integrated through themes, projects, and inquiry activities. It also examines classroom environments, assessment methods, curriculum planning, and the role of teachers in encouraging creativity, curiosity, and critical thinking. Through real-life examples and classroom vignettes, the book demonstrates how inquiry learning promotes problem-solving, collaboration, and lifelong learning while still meeting academic standards. Overall, the text serves as a guide for teachers and education students who want to create engaging, developmentally appropriate curricula that support the whole child. _u http://172.20.27.22:4000/handle/123456789/164
