Yipes. I’ve had too much on my plate of late to blog. But this is still a place to capture & share thoughts for later..
- Play is a central condition for learning.
- There are & have always been teachers who know that play is central to learning.
When I have time, perhaps I’ll elaborate on the connection between dance & play, but for now, it seems too obvious to dwell on. I have classes to plan for tomorrow, and it’s more important to make them playful than to explain how.
Ashley was saying a certain school she’s been teaching at has extended their school day by an hour each day. Perhaps a good example of the disregard for this central condition?
Glad to see you blogging again!
Yup, like we need more of the same! Oy. Wow, that makes a long day! For teachers as well as kids…
I see the blue tape! :)
I’ll send a better picture… I did take one!
