What more can early educators do to leverage play to achieve positive outcomes in all domains? Join Professor, Author, Researcher, and renowned “Playful Learning” Advocate, Dr. Kathy Hirsh-Pasek in an inspiring webinar about the power of Guided Play. Using a backdrop of compelling research, Dr. Hirsh-Pasek will share strategies early educators can use to support curricular goals by presenting a learning goal, and scaffolding the environment while allowing children to maintain a large degree of control over their learning. This approach allows educators to use the best of direct instruction and free play. Participants will:
- Learn more about early brain development and the relationship to play,
- Explore the concept of Guided Play as it relates to cognitive, social-emotions, and physical development;
- Examine strategies they can use to implement Guided Play in their programs.
All sessions are 1.5 hours long, and include a brief announcement from our sponsor.
