Document Summary
Every child has the right to be taught. Child creates himself/has the ability to construct their own personality. Children learn though activity and exploration and the senses. Believed work is play and play is work. Emphasis on the humanities/arts such as music, dance, theatre. > play is important and crucial for development. > children are engaged when they are allotted time for play and know that it is a vital component in the classroom. > children grow from playing with others as they learn they need to be nice to others even if others aren"t nice to them. I learned from the children i taught that when i allowed time in the classroom for play and trusted its vital importance, children learned, thrived, and grew by leaps and bounds . > during play, students focus on activities they enjoy whether its science, art, math, etc.
