Hola,

Siempre con los ambientes pedagógicos:

Las actividades de comunicación tienen lugar tanto a la hora de juego libre como durante el tiempo del grupo, existen materiales que animan a los niños y niñas a comunicarse disponibles en una variedad de centros de interés.

variety of interest centers
Explanation:
A literal translation because I believe "interest centers" is a pedagogical term.
My own child's school used this approach, but I never looked up the term in English until today.

Interest centers are a type of learning center. They provide an opportunity for students to acquire in-depth knowledge about a topic of interest. Unlike in traditional learning centers, students are not required to complete the activities in the center but can choose to visit the center when time allows. The topic might or might not be related to the unit of study. For example, when teaching about metamorphosis using the life cycle of the butterfly, the teacher might also create an interest center focusing on the life cycle of the frog so that students can delve deeper into the topic.

Interest centers provide a flexible learning environment, accommodating groups of all sizes, individual interests, and needs. When you design quality interest centers for children you are able to provide a variety of meaningful learning experiences simultaneously for children to choose from within a structured environment.
