It's Mid-Winter Break and that means...time for me to look over photos and make some blog posts! Sometimes, when pouring over pictures, themes emerge. With that in mind, the themes of this post and the next two will be "create", "communicate", and "classroom culture". Starting with creativity...
These pictures should give you a good idea of what classmates have been building and designing lately. It's true that we're not long past our "Global Day of Play", but truthfully there is time for open-ended exploration of materials everyday!
Above you can see design skills with pattern blocks, with Zoobs, and then with pattern block shapes on the chromebook!
In this second group of pictures you can see the designs that emerge from revisiting old materials like the wooden geoblocks and rubber band "geoboards", as well as with the pentominoes and gears that are just recently entering into the play. With just ONE crank, the buddies above were able to make EVERY gear in there creation turn!
