Name 4 factors to consider when determining different play themes.
What will be an ideal response?
(1) Not all themes are appropriate for all ages. If a class consists of children of mixed ages, one center might be designated for the younger children and another for the older children. (2) Integrate the theme and encourage the levels of pretense and narrative development in other learning centers. Because of the impact of socio-dramatic play on language and literacy development, pretend narratives should be encouraged in all the learning centers, not just the socio-dramatic centers. (3) Remember to change center themes throughout the year. If behavior problems are being noted in the center, then the children are most likely bored with the activities. So, change the center's theme. (4) Do not allow stereotyping based on gender. All children should be allowed to explore any role that they choose.
