I’m trying to learn for my Sociology class and I’m stuck. Can you help?
1-After reading chapter 4, think of a local playground or playgrounds you played on as a child? What type of surface was underneath the equipment? Was it well maintained? Did it protect children from injuries due to falls? Did the materials used cause any other hazards (such as overflowing sand that caused slipping or a surface that got too hot to safely touch skin)?
2- After reading chapter 3, how is considering group size related to safety? What might teachers need to observe for to determine if the group sizes are working well for the children? If you work in a program, have you implemented this before?
