Play is serious business.

Whether its reenacting a favorite book (comprehension and close reading), negotiating the rules for a game (speaking and listening), or collaborating over building blocks (college and career readiness and STEM), Kristi Mraz, Alison Porcelli, and Cheryl Tyler see every day how play helps students reach standards and goals in ways that in-their-seat instruction alone cant do. And not just during playtimes. We believe there is play in work and work in play, they write. It helps to have practical ways to carry that mindset into all aspects of the curriculum. In Purposeful Play, they share ways to:

  • optimize and balance different types of play to deepen regular classroom learning
  • teach into play to foster social-emotional skills and a growth mindset
  • bring the impact of play into all your lessons across the day.
  • We believe that play is one type of environment where children can be rigorous in their learning, Kristi, Alison, and Cheryl write. So they provide a host of lessons, suggestions for classroom setups, helpful tools and charts, curriculum connections, teaching points, and teaching language to help you foster mature play that makes every moment in your classroom instructional.

    Play doesnt only happen when work is over. Children show us time and time again that play is the way they work. In Purposeful Play, youll find research-driven methods for making play an engine for rigorous learning in your classroom.

    Alison would first like to thank her coauthors, Kristi and Cheryl, two of the most brilliant kindergarten teachers she has ever met. She is honored to have written this book with you. To all of Alisons former kindergarten students from Guilderland and Armonk, NY, who taught her the importance of making time for play each day. To Alisons dear friends and primary colleagues from her time at the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project, particularly Dahlia Dallal, Christine Holley, Monique Knight, Jory Lieber, Beth Moore, Marika Paez Wiesen, and Sarah Picard Taylor, who taught her so much about collaboration, hard work, and joyful teaching. Alison thanks her family for encouraging and inspiring endless hours of play while growing up, from putting on shows and building forts to doing the coffee break. Finally, she would like to thank her husband, Tomthank you for your constant love and support and for being the kind of father who encourages playfulness and curiosity. And to her son, Preston, the best gift life has given her. You are a joy to watch at play.
    Cheryl would like to thank her co-authors, Alison and Kristi. She is in awe of their wisdom, insight, humor, and passion for creating schools where kids are able to imagine unlimited possibilities. She would like to thank the wise teachers of PS 277 in the South Bronx who used the inquiry rooms to pave the way and infused the joy of play throughout the day: Adele Cammarata, Laura Zatkowsky, Tiana Silvas, Stacy Schellhaas, Ruairi Gribbon, Ali Siotkas, Robyn Levy, Joe Weaver, Jenna Campbell, William Seward, Danielle Feuer, Cara Biggane, Michelle Hernandez, Rebecca Ravski, Jessica Stillman, Nickie Coleman, Laura Heisler Cogan, Marcia Reidy, Kristin Smith, Mike Ochs, Lauren Perovich, Caitlin Mahoney, and Denise Capasso.

And then there are those friends who just make life interesting, joyful, and playful: thanks to Jacqui Getz for her fearlessness and humor, Susan Felder for her steadfastness, Lucy Malka for her limitless wisdom, Joe Yukish, who lives a life of purpose and play, and Dylan, the wisest, kindest friend a mom could ask for.
    Kristi would like to thank her coauthors, Cheryl and Alison, for being a source of thoughtful conversation, reflective questioning, and constant laughter. She could not have asked for a better and more joyful collaboration. She would also like to thank the families and children she has worked with the past few years who have taught her there is no greater learning than that which happens through play. Friends and teachers like Valerie Geschwind and Christine Hertz provided brilliance and sanity checks throughout the entire process. Chris Lehman, Kristin Ziemke, Kate Roberts, and Maggie Beattie Roberts inspire with their very being, and Kristi would like to thank them for every laugh, every talk, and their way of being fully and joyfully in the world. Finally, she would like to thank her family. First, to her sister, who endured hours of playing Little House on the Prairie in a dark and musty basement, and to her husband, Geoff, a talented writer and comedian, who has never failed to make her laugh.
