History in the Early Years explains the strands of thinking involved in historical enquiry at any level, the extent to which pre-school children can think in this specific way and how teachers can build on this historical thinking once children are in school. Hilary Cooper includes several case studies to illustrate points and offers activities through which historical thinking can be developed. This practical advice is placed in the context of the latest theoretical work on how children learn at this age and what experiences they bring to their early years in the classroom.
