Responding to Play
How to 'Teach' When Children Are Playing
Welcome to Your Responding to Play Webinar
Thanks for being here—and for your commitment to responsive, intentional teaching.
This two-part webinar is designed to support you in knowing how—and when—to teach within child-led play. It offers practical ways to notice what matters, recognise the learning, and respond in ways that enhance, rather than interrupt, the richness of play.
Grounded in real classroom practice, this session helps you confidently integrate curriculum learning with the natural flow of play.
