Books available from the Aistear Curriculum in Waterford Libraries
Aistear is the early childhood framework for all children from birth to 6 years in Ireland.
Aistear celebrates early childhood as a time of being, and of enjoying and learning from experiences as they unfold.
The framework uses four interconnected themes to describe children’s learning and development:
- Well-being
- Identity and Belonging
- Communicating
- Exploring and Thinking.
If you work with children or want to learn more about how to support the development of babies and toddlers, Aistear is a great guide.
You can now see what picture books from the Aistear curriculum are available in Waterford Libraries on our library catalogue by clicking on the ‘Aistear Booklists’ tabs. Or view the individual booklists at the links below.
