The materials I have chosen will support the learner centered environment I strive to have for my scholars. Early childhood is a time to support independence. Through flexible seating options children will enjoy having a choice in finding places in the classroom environment that works best for them to keep learning at the forefront. The multi sensory materials will provide the necessary stimulation that will keep them engaged in learning in a simple and obscured fashion. After much reflection, I have learned that the learning needs of all children vary greatly. Therefore, I intend to provide all students access to receiving education in such a diverse and inclusive environment.
