In Choice Time, veteran early childhood educator Renée Dinnerstein gives you everything you need to set up and implement choice time in your classroom. She outlines the research and summarizes the different kinds of play, including why each is important, and then provides suggestions for choice time centers that promote inquiry-based, guided play.
In this sample, you'll learn about the many forms of play and how each is important to the development of play-based curriculum. Give your students choice time, and watch them engage in joyful, important, playful, age-appropriate work that will empower them to become lifelong learners.
