Physical Environment
When organising the physical environment for art and music and movement learning experiences, you can consider the following:
Flexible use of space for individual, small group and large group activities: You can use available spaces in the centre flexibly for different art and music and movement activities, while allocating a defined space for individual or small group exploration of art and music and movement.
Sufficient space to facilitate children’s engagement with the arts: You should ensure that children have the time and space to explore and experiment freely with the arts. The outdoors is a less restrictive space that promotes children’s full engagement in the arts experience.
Purposeful selection and organisation of art materials and musical instruments: You can enhance children’s learning experiences by providing them with easy access to developmentally appropriate art materials and musical instruments.
