Jigsaw - Developing your PYP framework: Early years by Kelsey https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07 Read your assigned section with the following questions in mind: How do early learners learn best? What are the conditions for learning? What changes could be made to the diagram of an early learner? Reflect on what you have read and please choose a way to show what you have learned. Use creative thinking to demonstrate your learning of how young children learn best. You can choose to: create a visual, write a song or poem or do a skit. en-us 2022-09-29 18:44:02 UTC 2025-09-21 06:03:21 UTC hello@padlet.com Readings and Directions kelseyannca https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2319956225 2022-09-29 18:54:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2319956225 Making thinking visible kelseyannca https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2319956820 2022-09-29 18:55:08 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2319956820 Principles into practice/The Learner/The early learner kelseyannca https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2319957578 2022-09-29 18:55:47 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2319957578 The early years in the PYP kelseyannca https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2319958734 2022-09-29 18:56:45 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2319958734 Principles into practice/The learner/Approaches to learning in the early years/How teachers support skills development (pages 15&16) kelseyannca https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2319959308 2022-09-29 18:57:15 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2319959308 Jigsaw - Keri https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2571902202 "Skills  related  to  language,  symbolic  exploration  and  expression,  literacy  and  numeracy  are also developed through play. This occurs because play activates the cognitive process and social engagement necessary for these skills to develop and mature."

- I think this quote sums up the idea of play perfectly. Play provides the opportunities for skill development in every area.

- I think about my Grade 2's I am teaching this year. They missed many learning opportunities in Kindergarten as they were learning online. For the most part, my class is a very strong group of readers (because they had many one to one learning opportunities with their parents). However, their social skills and play skills are where I have had to focus my attention. Their group work, problem solving independently and many other social skills have required my attention this year.

- It proves how valuable a play based problem is to our young learners.

I'll upload another similar image shortly.

Please excuse my shoddily drawn images. My students are always very caring and say my drawings are beautiful, even though they are objectively terrible. :D]]> 2023-04-28 15:24:41 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2571943138 Ben - 2.1.2 https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2571964528 I've found for ATLs, modelling has come up very frequently in the documentation, which seems obvious, but may be easy to forget - Young Learners will always look to the teacher for the prime example, so we need to be the paragon of ATLs.

We've been asked at our school to 'explicitly teach' the ATLs, which to be frank I feel is artificial, at least when it comes to EY students. You can only pre-empt so much of what will occur, but an argument or conflict between students can be a great teachable moment that everyone can learn from and reflect on. 

Again... sorry for the abysmal pics.]]> 2023-04-28 15:41:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2571964528 https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2572005894 Nathalie - Jigsaw

By creating a warm, caring and positive relationship, teachers connect with students and support their learning. Teachers should instill curiosity by how they communicate and how they set up the classroom or other learning environments.

For the youngest students in the school who are new to the language of the PYP is it essential that teachers introduce, model, identify, celebrate and reflect on action in the classroom.

Students learn best when student agency is evident – choice, voice, and ownership within a healthy learning environment. Through developing the ATL and demonstrating the learner profile attributes students are improving their agency. 

What are the conditions for learning? 

1. A learning environment where there is a culture of respect and trust where all students feel welcomed, significant, and emotionally safe.
2. A learning environment that fosters supportive relationships from all members within the learning community. 
3. An environment that provides a variety of resources for the students.

Learning opportunities should be provided to support learner agency. Flexability can be incorportated in daily scheduling and learning spaces to support ownership of learning. Within the learning spaces, there should be resources that support agency, allowance for interacting with others, and have open-minded materials that can enhance the learning experience.  The environment should allow for engagement  and reflection. As well as making the learner feel respected, trusted and safe.]]> 2023-04-28 16:51:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2572040249 Emily kelseyannca https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/pm18xco7xpf8bl07/wish/2572064456 • How do early learners learn best?
When teachers adapt learning goals and intended learning experiences based on their observations of young students’ learning and development. 

• What are the conditions for learning?
Teachers create an environment where learners learn best by:
• planning uninterrupted time for play
• building strong relationships with students and their families
• creating and maintaining responsive spaces for play
• offering many opportunities for symbolic exploration and expression.

“By positioning play as central to children’s development, teachers are creating a non-threatening environment for children to learn about the world at their own pace”.

• What changes could be made to the diagram of an early learner?
I am not sure what diagram you are referring to/where to find it
