The Bakery - Supporting Children to Succeed in the Dramatic Play Center

She begins by learning what children know about a topic and shares how she helps them increase their understanding. Strategies that are used to support children’s social skills and self-regulation are demonstrated. Teachers ensure children’s success and provide enough time and support to enable them to practice and master skills.
