Learning Issue 3: "How can Teacher Sally keep the children engaged in the library centre?"
Action Plan:
- Teacher Sally could bring in more interactive books that could sustain the children's attention, e.g. felt books, audio books, etc.
- At the same time, Teacher Sally should also take note of each child's developmental level because the children may find the books too easy for them. Once this has been taken note of, Teacher Sally can provide the appropriate books for the children (e.g. she should not provide books that have more pictures than words for older children, doing so may discourage the child to read more)

Learning Issue 4: "Why do the children prefer the commercial items? What can Teacher Sally do to improve her materials and get the children interested in them?"
- The children may find the commercial items more attractive than the DIY materials made by Teacher Sally because of its durability and how it is very engaging to the children.
- Teacher Sally should prepare materials that are as durable as the commercial items.
