Block Play: Stacked with Learning Potential
Friday June 19, 2026 8:30am - 10:00am CDT
One source described blocks as “the tool you can’t teach without.” Join this session on block play to uncover the truth behind that statement. We will discuss the definition of a block, types of blocks, appropriate set-up of the block area, stages of block play, benefits for children and the teacher's role. Your participation will lead to a deeper understanding of what children are actually learning through block play and how to best support them in that learning.
