THE PLAY AT THE CORE PROGRAM
In 2012, Right To Play was invited to apply its learning model to tackle
the growing educational opportunity gap in New York City. Right To Play’s
New York City-based program, Play at the Core, is a comprehensive
training and coaching program designed to support early childhood
educators and enhance the teaching quality in Early Childhood Education
centers in the city’s most vulnerable communities.
Play at the Core develops the abilities of early childhood educators to plan
and execute intentional play programming, as well as builds their capacity
to engage child-initiated play. Play at the Core’s trainings aim to
strengthen both facilitation skills and creative capacity for maximized
engagement.
In four years, Play at the Core has worked with more than 570 educators across 59 Early Childhood Education centers, reaching
over 4,700 children in New York City’s most under-resourced communities in the Bronx, Harlem, Washington Heights and
Brooklyn.
