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

We use Twinkl animal themed resources to help promote the characteristics of effective learning and teaching within the setting. We have a large display up that has the following characters visible to all…
