[quote=Anonymous]It really varies. Your best bet always is to visit the school. Is there an area in the classroom where kids can engage in dramatic play? It should look like a play kitchen area or boxes with dress-up costumes or a "grocery store" with items to buy. Is there an area where kids can play with puppets? Ask to see a typical schedule for a kindergarten class. Is the room divided into areas--building (blocks), math (counting blocks, pattern blocks, cubes) , listening headphones with tape or cd players) , story (books of all sizes) , art (an easel with paints, smock) , etc? If you see these, then that's a good sign that kids are moving around the room and able to choose where they will spend time. [/quote]
