Learning Area:   iExperience

Learning Observed

Today we took the Learners from LH2 outside to spend some time ‘experiencing’ the opportunities available to them while using the building materials that currently form our playground.   They were encouraged to get together in small groups, but were left to construct their play from their own imaginations. I found Shams and Shaun digging the ground with small sticks.  They had a small pile of stones which they described as being hidden treasure that had been buried.    I suggested that they might be archaeologists, digging for the remains of a lost city.
