Here in the Garden Room we are observing that the children are intrigued with the idea of connecting things together. We first started noticing this in the early days of the children's paper exploration.
Children immediately started figuring out ways to join pieces of paper together.
As they found new ways to put things together,
they saw new possibilities
Connecting animals with beads |
Connecting tables together with tape |
Connecting rulers together |
Connecting your house to my house |
Looking more deeply at the work of the children, we see another form of connection taking place:
Our shared experiences are connecting us together.
Sara and Jen, I love this entry and the way you saw the children making so many different kinds of connections. The Meadow room children have been connecting their constructions with strands of beads. It is funny how the same idea shows up at the same time in different places. Maybe evidence for that quote!
