Region 1, PTKLF Approaches to Learning (virtual)

Join us for an interactive learning experience via zoom to explore the new Approaches to Learning domain!

The Approaches to Learning (ATL) domain describes skills and abilities that children develop and demonstrate in high-quality early learning environments. High-quality learning environments provide learning experiences that are socially interactive, meaningful, and stem from children’s own interests.  During these experiences, young children are able to practice collaboration and problem-solving skills with peers and adults, demonstrate curiosity and a desire to learn, plan and make choices that reflect their personal interests, and attend to routines and schedules. Play is a central element in fostering these skills and abilities.
Learning Outcomes:
1. Review the PTKLF Approaches to Learning (ATL) domain for children aged three to five-and-a-half years.
2. Discuss the ATL domain.
3. Identify how teachers can support ATL.
4. Recognize the value of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
