There is a lot to say about Play-based Learning and I have MANY photos and stories to share. This post will evolve over the coming weeks so please revisit it to find out more.
Put simply - the children LOVE play-based learning and more importantly their academic achievement and social skills are accelerated.
Children are always trying to convince me to allow play all day! That doesn't quite work but sometimes their logical explanations about their learning are difficult to ignore.
These are some photos of play happening. Notations to explain will come soon.
