Playful Learning in the Senior Classes with Gillian Corbally
We talk a lot about play, but how can we bring it into everyday teaching in the senior classes in primary school?

Gillian talks about the importance of letting children learn in a variety of ways to aid their development, and tackles the tricky question: how do we assess play?If you liked this episode, please leave us a rating and a review wherever you listen!Follow us @thatllteachyoupodcast on Instagram and Tiktok!
