Description
Play skills are the foundation for all learning, but not all students learn important play skills naturally. By teaching play skills directly, your young children (especially those with disabilities) can increase their problem-solving, communication, and social skills.
To use this handout:
Ask participants to read each of the 4 groups of play skills and determine which group comes 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. This activity helps educators review their knowledge of play skills and how they typically develop. This information informs adults and prompts them to think of play skills in terms of which skills are appropriate to teach next for groups and individual children.
Save by purchasing all 5 handouts together! This file is part of a bundle of 5 handouts aimed at reminding early childhood educators how important it is to teach play skills during center/choice time. See my item called: "Teaching Play Skills - The Foundation of All Learning - Bundle".
