Welcome to another episode of the Teaching with Valor Podcast. I’m your host, Don Fessenden, and today we’re diving into a delightful yet critical topic: Using Play to Enhance Learning.
From elementary through high school, play is a powerful tool for engaging students, enhancing learning experiences, and developing critical social and cognitive skills. We'll explore practical ways to integrate play into education at different levels and discuss how this approach can be tailored to meet educational standards while also fostering creativity and innovation.
Stay tuned for two additional segments that delve deeper into this subject and a special bonus segment where I answer a common question from parents about integrating play into learning.
