Description
This revised new edition of The Movement Environment Rating Scale (MOVERS) offers a brand-new method of measuring the quality of the environment and pedagogy in which young children are encouraged to move and be physically active.
As physical development is a key component of an educational curriculum, MOVERS offers practitioners the opportunity to accurately assess the quality of a childβs physical experiences, as well as the environmental and pedagogical quality of these experiences. The MOVERS is placed firmly in the family of CLIQRS β Curriculum, Leadership and Interaction Quality Rating Scales, which includes the Early Childhood Quality Rating Scale β Emergent Curriculum (ECQRS-EC), the Sustained Shared Thinking and Emotional Well-being Scale (SSTEW), and the Pedagogical Leadership in the Early Years (PLEY) scale. All of these have a similar format to previously mentioned scales, making it easy for educators already familiar with these well-established scales to adopt and adapt them to their own unique settings.
MOVERS has four sub-scales:
- curriculum, environment and resources for physical development
- pedagogy for physical development
- supporting physical activity and critical thinking
- parents/carers and staff
This book will be an invaluable tool for research, self-evaluation and improvement, as well as audit and regulation. With additional notes derived from extensive use of this resource by practitioners in hundreds of settings and early years specialists around the world, it has also been rigorously updated according to the latest research, practice and policy.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
