Play Planning
Play Planning
Children describe what they are going to do when they play and then represent their plan on paper in drawing and writing. Children work at their own level, adding detail to their drawn plans, using lines to represent words in their written message, and using the Tools of the Mind Sound Map to write letters representing the sounds in their words.

The Make-Believe Play Center Block is the centerpiece of the Tools of the Mind preschool program. During this time block, children plan their plan, engage in intentional make-believe play together, and clean up.
