Introduction

Areas of Education is a wide umbrella so to speak. People learn within education in many different ways and in many different places not just the classroom setting. Below I have chosen 4 contexts of learning that have a particular interest to me as I enjoy the Foundation Phase area the most out of all the segments of schools. My 4 contexts are Play, Foundation Phase, Outdoor Learning and Forest Schools. During each blog post I have explained a little history and/or overview of the context and then gone on to describe and evaluate the effect the context has within children and whether I agree personally or not. I have also added links in which I think back up my arguments or views whether I agree or disagree in the form of videos or articles. I have also added pictures to give a visual understanding on some of the contexts that I have explored.


This is my reference list that i have had all information from:
