[quote=Anonymous]Depends on the school but my experience with a play based preschool is that they are left in a room to play with whatever they want for 2 hours or so. they may get more free time outside and sometimes the teacher has an activity for them (make a paper pumpkin or turkey for example) Absolutely no review of ABC's or basic counting. No help with learning to write your name. No nursery rhymes. Might read a story 2-3 times a week. Play based learning often means the kids play and we hope they learn something. I wouldn't do it again (although my son is doing very well in school so it didn't destroy his academic career.) I just think we had to work harder in Kindergarten.[/quote]
