By Tracey Adams Developmental Appropriate Practice

Does the activity: Allow children to participate at their own level? Allow for flexibility, with no “right” or “wrong” outcome? Encourage active learning through participation? Encourage exploration and thinking? Allow for socialization and interaction with others? Enable children to learn through their senses? Allow children to experience things “hands-on”? Give children choices? Foster children’s positive feelings about themselves? Respect individual differences and cultural diversity? Lend itself to being adapted if beneficial? Acknowledge the physical needs of children? Reflect the goals and philosophy of the center?

Double Bullet List with Additional Titles What wouldn’t you see in a D.A.P. Classroom What would you see in a D.A.P. Classroom Dittos as art activities Most activities teacher - Small group activities, directed & large group based on interest Forced participation All adult-oriented Teacher frustrated with Small, quiet “naptime non-napping child boxes” at designated times only art/music/science accessible Open-ended art “Rote” learning & Hands-on experiences with memorization real objects Waiting, lining up Self-help skills/autonomy Children offered choices décor “Ownership” of the room by the children reflected

“Show me and I forget; Teach me and I remember; Involve me and I learn.” Benjamin Franklin

Double Bullet List to Customize How do we tell children… …this is a good place to be? …that this is their classroom? …that this is a place that they can trust? …that they can be by themselves if they need to? …that this is a safe place to try out ideas Based on what we know about how young children learn Relevant to children’s life experiences Based on the children’s current knowledge and abilities Respectful of cultural and individual differences and learning styles Responsive to the interests and needs of the children Focused on the learning process, not the end product Thought provoking - stimulating and challenging the minds of young children Based on the philosophy that children are competent and trustworthy, and can make good

SHIFTING TO BETTER CHOICES: Example: Better Activity: Children color a beach ditto Shells placed in the Sand Table All must participate in a game Each has free choice Children are intrigued by the construction going on outside, let the children learn and talk construction but it isn’t the theme of the week anyway All children are doing art at choose 4 at a time to do art as the rest plays the table as a group in centers Children watch a video on dinosaurs children make dinosaurs and read books The teacher has cut frogs out of construction paper for art let the child cut out the frogs
