About this Session

Guided play is revolutionizing the way children learn, and traditional workbooks and worksheets are no longer the gold standard in early childhood education. Rooted in Vygotsky’s Zones of Proximal Development, inquiry-based projects and thoughtful questioning push young children beyond their current understanding, fostering deep, meaningful learning experiences.

Join early childhood education experts from Teaching Strategies as we demonstrate how guided play develops critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and genuine curiosity in young learners.

Throughout this one-hour webinar, international school leaders and teachers will:

  • Understand the limitations of memorization and repetition in early childhood education.
  • Discover the principles of guided play and how it aligns with Vygotsky’s theories.
  • Learn practical strategies for implementing inquiry-based learning and guided play in your classroom.
  • Gain insights into communicating the value of guided play to parents and stakeholders.
