    Narda Nelson, B Denise HodginsCHAPTERResearching Early Childhood…2020

    Drawing on data from a multi-jurisdictional, participatory research project with children and educators, this chapter resituates prevailing early childhood education frameworks for sustainability (ECEfS) within a common worlds orientation to argue in favor of curriculum and pedagogy as lively, contingent, more-than-human entanglements. It is an exploratory attempt to engage unruly voices—those voices not so readily ruled, disciplined or managed—a…
