For the last week, the Rocks Class has been working in the drama area with hollow blocks. They have learned the names of the two types of blocks and also how they relate to one another in size. We have spent time discussing how to safely carry and build with the blocks.
The hollow blocks can be used by the children to build a set where a story of their own imaging may take place. This encourages the children to collaborate and have a conversation about what they would like to create. When they are done, the children then work together to unbuild their structure.
These Rocks students worked together to use the square hollow blocks to fill in a larger square on the floor.
Four students worked together to build a train that is going to take them to California!
These students are carrying the double blocks to stack and then
sail across the drama area to pull them away.
