Our Twinkl Characters
The Characteristics of effective learning are split into three areas...
1. Playing and exploring
Children investigate and experience things and ‘have a go’
2. Active Learning
Children concentrate and keep on trying if they encounter difficulties, and enjoy achievements
3. Creating and thinking critically
Children have and develop their own ideas, make links between ideas, and develop strategies for doing things
