Play based learning and the Early Years Learning Framework withLennieBarblett

Introduction Early Childhood Australia (ECA) acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the original inhabitants of Australia and recognises their culture as part of the cultural heritage of all Australians. I respectfully acknowledge the past and present traditional owners of this land. I acknowledge the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to the society we have today where we all strive to provide the best education for all of our children.

Introduction The Early Years Learning Framework is part of the Council of Australian Government’s reform agenda for early childhood education and care, and is a key component of the Australian Government’s National Quality Framework for early childhood education and care. 

EYLF National Vision Childhood is about: Belonging (being connected to family, culture, community, place) Being (to be, to seek, and make meaning of the world) Becoming (shaping new understandings, identities, capacities and relationships).

Structure of the EYLF

Play based learning and the Early Years Learning Framework What is play? Generally there are a number of agreed upon characteristics: voluntary pleasurable symbolic active process oriented intrinsically motivated. Play is a fundamental right of all children. (UNROC, 1989)

Play based learning and the Early Years Learning Framework EYLF and play EYLF defines this as: ‘a context for learning through which children organise and make sense of their social worlds, as they engage actively with people, objects and representations.’ (EYLF, 2009,p46) BUT THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT ANYTHING GOES Research tells us that educators need to be knowledgeable, active and articulate about play.

Children have a strong sense of wellbeing. Children are confident and involved learners. Children are effective communicators.
