Indoor/Outdoor Learning EnvironmentsIn the early stages of life, children learn and develop best through play. Schools must provide indoor and outdoor learning environments such as centers and playgrounds. In Kindergarten, children must be allowed 1 hour to play in centers. Outdoor recess time is a requirement as well to increase motor skill development. |

FamilyA child’s learning and socialization are most influenced by their family since the family is the child’s primary social group. Families possess the responsibility of nurturing their children in order to maximize their potential to develop in a healthy and efficient manner. However, side effects of family stressors, such as divorce, work schedules and poverty can negatively impact a child’s development and hinder their learning progress. It is important for the families of Kindergarteners to be involved in their education in order to provide assistance in the learning process. After all, a child not only learns in school, but in the home as well. |
