Text (slide 29):
Why is the Environment Important?
“That the environment influences children’s behavior is a well-established maxim in early childhood education. As children engage in their environment, they adapt their intellectual tools to meet new situations or challenges, integrating thought and action. Both their mental and their physical processes are the means by which children achieve new understandings and developing skills.” (Roskos & Neuman, 2001)
