In Collaboration with SEEPP,  The Cape Cod Children's Museum is offering a Professional Learning Community for Educators in Region 5 on Weaving Meaningful Play Back into the Preschool Curriculum

Weaving Meaningful Play back Into the Preschool Curriculum

Developing Decision Making Skills Through Play

Through a mixed delivery system of large group discussions, small group activities and hands-on projects, participants will explore and investigate how children learn and develop essential skills through their play experiences.  Life skills, Social/Emotional  Learning and Approaches to Play and Learning frameworks will be the links that connect each session in the series.  While not required, participants are strongly encouraged to consider participating in all four workshops. All workshops meet from 6:30 – 8:30 at the Cape Cod Children’s Museum.

Session 4:  Developing Decision Making Skills Through Play
(SEL 11; SEL 12; APL 4; APL 7; APL 8)
Using these Social/Emotional Learning and Approaches to Play Learning Standards, participants will explore and share how to weave games, songs and play opportunities into their curriculum that will help their students develop decision making skills as it relates to following rules, helping to create classroom/safety rules, and creative/cooperative problem solving.
