Learning centers and making choices are common strategies used to foster learning in early childhood classrooms. How do we know when students are challenged through their choices? How can teachers design activities that are both developmentally appropriate and challenging? The presenters share how they plan, design, and implement a Choice Time that addresses differences in interest, readiness, and learning styles. Most importantly, presenters focus on the benefits of choice time to inspire dispositions that encourage children to inquire, direct their own learning, and work with other children to deepen their own understandings and strengthen their skills.
