What is an enriched environment?
An enriched environment is one that is free of harmful stress, yet filled with challenging learning activities that utilize all of the senses and appeal to a full range of intelligences. In an enriched environment, learners have the choice to progress at their own rate and in their own way. Movement and music are used liberally, and the surroundings are visually stimulating and exciting. Learners interact a great deal, but are also given time to reflect.
