  7. How Do Children Play Best? • When they are given enough time to play and develop their own projects. • When they can play with others and make relationships. • When they are free to explore on their own and be private too. • When they can imagine and pretend. • When they can choose what they want to play with and when. • When they are given the chance to play inside and outside.

They should enjoy learning to read and write through play based activities Using the phonics scheme ‘Letters and Sounds’ to learn letter names, sounds and to begin to spell and decode words Encouraging a love of reading and writing through storytelling, sharing books, and writing for a purpose Reading and writing should be taught within a context that is meaningful to the children
