"For children to benefit fully from play, teachers must take their own roles seriously. Early childhood educators cannot wander around classrooms operating on the vague assumption that children learn through play while, at the same time, lamenting the challenges to play coming from parents and administrators. Instead, teachers must recognize play as one of the key teaching and learning contexts in early childhood classroom, must acquire skills themselves in research-based effective teaching strategies such as scaffolding language to use during play, and must incorporate play along with other more directive teaching throughout the preschool day." (Susan Bredekamp).



There's more to life than just what's in their neighborhood. This is what it's all about, this is what drives me to do what I'm doing.

(Raymond Hernandez MS Ed. Executive Director, School of Early Childhood Education for
