Play-based Curriculum: Literacy and Numeracy - ECHE210

This unit examines the role of play in supporting young children’s literacy and numeracy development from birth to their transition into school. The unit builds students’ capacity to recognise, evaluate and design environments and experiences that encourage play-based learning and enable children with diverse socio-cultural and linguistic backgrounds and abilities to develop the early literacy and numeracy competencies and dispositions essential for academic and social success at school and beyond.
