In \u003ci\u003eThe Classrooms All Young Children Need\u003c\/i\u003e, Patricia M. Cooper takes a synoptic view of Paley's many books and articles, charting the evolution of Paley's thinking while revealing the seminal characteristics of her teaching philosophy. This careful analysis leads Cooper to identify a pedagogical model organized around two complementary principles: a curriculum that promotes play and imagination, and the idea of classrooms as fair places where young children of every color, ability, and disposition are welcome. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith timely attention paid to debates about the reduction in time for play in the early childhood classroom, the role of race in education, and No Child Left Behind, \u003ci\u003eThe Classrooms All Young Children Need\u003c\/i\u003e will be embraced by anyone tasked with teaching our youngest pupils.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Patricia M.
