learning. Whether this is indoors or outdoors, activity is essential in
order to activate children’s full potential. Their focus, concentration,
motivation and self-regulation are enhanced through moving,
doing and interacting within a range of learning environments.

PlayfulEncouraging children to make connections through imagination
and creativity to explore alternate worlds and ways of thinking.
These worlds, not bounded by reality, offer the freedom children
need to innovate and enact new possibilities.

ResponsiveIncorporating a willingness to be flexible, to ensure that learning
is always child, context, content and discipline appropriate.
To achieve this, educators will balance opportunities for structure
and spontaneity, open-ended and specific tasks, and child-led
and educator-led learning.

ScaffoldedIncluding such actions as modelling, encouraging, questioning,
adding challenges, and giving feedback, provide the support
needed to extend children’s existing capabilities. Effective
scaffolding by both educators and other children provides active
structures to support new learning; it is then progressively
withdrawn as learners gain increasing mastery.
