To promote learning and development in the primary years, it is important to use a diverse range of materials wisely, effectively, and intentionally. When children have access to a variety of materials (classroom, natural, home), opportunities for them to engage in creative expression, to problem solve with peers, and to practice key language and social skills is increased. Implementing the multiple strategies presented in this publication not only provides examples of how teachers can create a stimulating and responsive environment for children, but also how such practices lead to the overall social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development of children in the primary years.
