EMAP #3: ASSESS INTEREST   

Is what you’ve learned, something you can use?  Options!

Option 2: It’s not busy work!
Move Passive Interests Forward

 

To develop passive interests  address:  value, create supportive environment, and provide variety.  It is important to develop our children’s passive interests so our children can be all that they are.

In Assess Interest, EMAP 3 Option 2, we show you how to make a plan to turn passive interests into active, enthusiastic opportunities.  We address how to re-prioritize the value of the activity, create a supportive environment and provide a variety of materials and resources.  Whether or not each of these options apply to your child right now, having this information will help you know what to do when they emerge.
