Abstract

The present research work entitled unconventional learning environments that promote the integral development of children from 3 to 5 years old, is based on investigating whether the learning spaces existing in the initial education classrooms are innovative, creative and playful, where children can explore, investigate and learn to solve their problems autonomously. This research is qualitative, descriptive, exploratory and participatory, the instruments used in the present investigation were 8 surveys made to the teachers of the initial level, the application of 15 observation cards where the development of the children was recorded, and 1 documentation and reflection sheet on which the implementation of the learning environment was based, taking into account the needs and interests of the children. In conclusion it was determined that teachers are unaware of unconventional learning environments and that in their daily practice they use only conventional environments, with established times, directed activities and the management of structured resources.
