Loose Parts Play: Further training

Playing with Loose Parts offers opportunities to encourage preschoolers to develop 21st century skills.

Program
In the morning you will actively experience the possibilities and learn more about the thinking and action patterns that frequently occur in the play of preschoolers and how you can facilitate this.

In the afternoon we zoom in on the domain of mathematics: in the spontaneous play of children with Loose Parts we see many mathematical aspects emerge. We link these to the mathematical insights that the toddlers practice on, often without being aware of it. We investigate how we can further deepen these game forms and link them to concrete mathematics goals.

Goals
The participant:

• knows the possibilities of Loose Parts Play;
• knows what the added value of Loose Parts is in terms of the development of toddlers;
• teaches concrete working methods to work with Loose Parts in your own classroom.
