Learning Activity 2: Many Ways Children Learn
Focus
When the day in a child care centre is organized so that children are engaged in different activities, the children will have opportunities to learn in many ways.
Important: Remember that children explore more when they feel secure. If the environment in a child care facility is set up to reflect the cultural diversity of the children in the program, then the children will likely feel secure and will explore their environment.

Step 1: Go to a child care facility and complete Learning Activity 2: Many Ways Children Learn.
Step 2: After completing Step 1, discuss what you observed with another student in your class. Be sure to talk about your examples and the learning styles that are being promoted in your examples.
