• Children may work with a material or activity for as long or as short a period of time as they wish.

• Each work must be returned to its appropriate place on the shelf in such a way that it is ready for the next person to use.

• The children are free to move and talk, but they may not disturb another child who is working.

• The children are allowed to solve their problems by themselves.
