[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jees, I can't believe the iota the parents on this thread who dismiss play without having ANY clue the role it plays in learning, [/quote] I'm not dismissing play and the role it plays in learning. I just think a lot of people talk about "play based preschools" without any idea of what this means in practice when you have a classroom setting. A free for all where the kids do whatever they want? Being given a set of limited stations and materials, eg "choice time"? "[b]Fun" activities like art projects that are teacher-directed but not expressly academic?[/b] etc etc. [/quote] Actually in "true" play-based pre-schools, the art projects aren't even teacher directed.
