Setting the Environment – Sock Ball Example

Criteria or observable behaviours of setting up environments:

• The children are appropriately and independently engaged with the materials
• You enter the play to provide developmentally appropriate support to those who need it
• You are able to exit without disrupting the play

Discuss question examples:
