ECE professionals in specialization and intervention roles support children with developmental, behavioral, communication, and medical needs. They include special education teachers, early intervention specialists, speech-language pathologists, and child life specialists, helping children overcome developmental challenges and build essential skills.
- Early Childhood Literacy Engaging and Empowering Emergent Readers and Writers - Birth to Age 5 (Schull et al.)
- This textbook, Early Childhood Literacy: Engaging and Empowering Emergent Readers and Writers – Birth to Age 5, provides a comprehensive introduction to emergent literacy development in early childhood education (ECE). It emphasizes that literacy begins well before formal reading and writing instruction and develops through children’s relationships, language experiences, play, home environments, and interactions with books and writing materials.
- Inclusion, Education and Translanguaging (Panagiotopoulou, Rosen, and Strzykala)
- The idea for this text came about when we visited Ofelia García in New York in the fall of 2017 to observe and experience translanguaging live—in a mathematics lesson at a bilingual primary school in Queens—during a research visit. This was a special event for us because we had by then been dealing with the concept for years and were constantly confronted with the standard question of how translanguaging can be put into practice in the context of teacher education, congresses and conferences.
- Infant and Toddler Care and Development 2e
- Infant and Toddler Care and Development 2e offers a comprehensive guide to nurturing children from birth to age three, covering physical, cognitive, emotional, and social development. It emphasizes responsive caregiving, brain development, language growth, and inclusive, culturally sensitive practices. The text also explores observation, assessment, curriculum planning, and regulatory guidelines, equipping caregivers to support healthy, holistic early development.

- Introduction to Children with Exceptionalities (Rethwisch)
- This book introduces learners to the many facets of special education. Readers are invited to explore a variety of disabilities that may qualify a child for individualized support services. Readers will learn about cognitive, physical, sensory, emotional, and developmental differences, along with the laws and instructional strategies that guide educational practice. Readers will also be invited to identify with the children presented in various scenarios.
- Mathematics Methods for Early Childhood (Stramel)
- Most people agree that early childhood includes the period from infancy until eight years of age, characterized by rapid and complex growth in physical, cognitive, and social domains. Math skills must be taught in early childhood. Children should be provided a foundation to succeed in elementary school and beyond. Teachers should focus lessons in early childhood around the basic skills that will help to advance future mathematics.
