Children learn best when they are focused and motivated. Reaching out to a child's interests will encourage them to participate in learning. As practitioners, we need to incorporate a child’s interests into our planning so that we can get them interested and motivated.

When a child becomes engaged, they learn through a natural process. A good example of this is when times tables are taught through song.

A child engaged in learning creates a positive atmosphere, which encourages feelings of positive well-being.

Intellectual, physical and emotional growth can be promoted through less focused and more ‘incidental tasks’ created from a child’s engagement.

When children go to school, these methods will be built on through their ‘next steps’ learning targets. These learning targets will be taken from their previous development and planned ‘individually’ from what we have found to engage the child.

Parents/carers build on activities that they know their children enjoy to promote their intellectual, physical and emotional growth.

Bydd plant yn dysgu orau pan fydd ganddynt ffocws pendant a chymhelliant. Bydd apelio at ddiddordebau plentyn yn ei annog i gymryd rhan yn y dysgu. Fel ymarferwyr, mae angen i ni ymgorffori diddordebau plentyn yn ein gwaith cynllunio er mwyn ennyn ei ddiddordeb a'i gymhelliant.

Pan fydd diddordeb plentyn yn cael ei ennyn, bydd yn dysgu drwy broses naturiol. Un enghraifft dda o hyn yw pan gaiff tablau lluosi eu haddysgu gan ddefnyddio caneuon.

Mae plentyn sydd â diddordeb yn yr hyn mae'n ei ddysgu yn creu awyrgylch cadarnhaol, sy'n annog teimladau o lesiant cadarnhaol.

Gellir hybu twf deallusol, corfforol ac emosiynol drwy dasgau â llai o ffocws sy'n fwy ‘damweiniol’, sy'n cael eu creu wrth i blentyn ddangos diddordeb.

Pan fydd plant yn mynd i'r ysgol, adeiledir ar y dulliau hyn drwy eu targedau dysgu ‘camau nesaf’. Bydd y targedau hyn yn seiliedig ar eu datblygiad blaenorol ac wedi'u cynllunio'n ‘unigol’ ar sail yr hyn sy'n ennyn diddordeb y plentyn.

Bydd rhieni/gofalwyr yn adeiladu ar weithgareddau y maent yn gwybod bod eu plant yn eu mwynhau er mwyn hybu eu twf deallusol, corfforol ac emosiynol.
