Inspiring Learning and Keeping Children Engaged

[Heather]

When designing a learning environment, it's important to create a classroom that inspires learning and keeps children engaged. A classroom that inspires learning has opportunities for children to make discoveries and create on their own. This can be through block play, dramatic play, or having a rotating collection of manipulatives. Rotating any and all classroom learning centers can rekindle interest in areas children may have not experienced in a few days or weeks. This also helps keep children engaged in your classroom or learning environment. Changing the types of activities in learning centers and using your children's current interests in lesson planning keep children interested and curious about your classroom.
