[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]We got nothing out of our play based program including social-emotional. They just play. In our program, actual social skills as well as academic skills are taught. [/quote] Sounds like a program in a daycare center that does not have qualified preschool teachers. Believe me, worksheets and sitting in a desk is not appropriate for a five year old.[/quote] My child was in full time daycare and while they had plenty of play time, they did quite a bit of worksheets and sitting at a desk. That's why she's prepared for K.[/quote And why her creativity has been irrevocably stunted. We teach to the test, try to get ahead---while study after study show play-based programs in preschool start demonstrating a clear advantage in third grade and from then on. [/quote]
