Introduction to Learning Through Play

In this first segment, we introduce the major topics for our series - Oral Language, Planning, Assessment, and Cross Curricular Work - all through the lens of a play-based curriculum. Our featured teachers also discuss ways in which they establish routines, select materials, and infuse playfulness into everything they do. The teachers discuss the importance of play-based learning and their decision to make play an integral part of the learning experience for their students.
