Classrooms that prioritize whole child learning are relationship-centric learning environments. Whole child learning recognizes and supports the full scope of the child’s developmental needs to ensure that every child reaches their full academic, social, psychological, and emotional potential. Educational strategies used by teachers will capitalize on the child as a unique learner, utilizing the child’s interests, background, struggles, and triumphs as unique opportunities for learning and development. Given each child’s individual needs, teachers create a classroom environment where students feel healthy, safe, supported, and challenged. https://www.ascd.org/whole-child
