[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it possible or useful to make a list of known play based programs in DC?[/quote] Curious about this, with some caveats since there’s some disagreement in this thread about what “play-based” refers to. Mostly though I think we should listen to the teachers, who probably have a better sense of not just their classroom and what their school requires but also trends within DCPS. We parents can get too defensive of our own decisions or jump to extremes. I don’t know how a section of this thread concluded people asking about play are then anti-learning and should go to forest school … really doesn’t help the discussion. [/quote] You should attend open houses of schools within a small radius of your home and pick the school that best fits your needs. The stress of commuting across the city is not worth avoiding an occasional small group or explicit phonics instruction.[/quote]
