Region 11 – PTKLF: Approaches to Learning Overview - (Invitation Only)
The Attention to Learning (ATL ) domain describes skills and abilities that children develop and demonstrate while engaged in play-based learning approaches and opportunities. While engaging in play-based learning experiences that are socially interactive, meaningful and stem from their own interests, young children will practice collaboration and problem-solving skills with peers and adults, demonstrate curiosity and a desire to learn, plan and making choices that reflect their personal interests and attend to routines and schedules. Play is a vital element of learning.
