Through consultation with the children they have eagerly investigated and explored the new learning environments and resources \u00a0which has sparked a buzz of interest in and around the playroom with lots of discussions regarding where and how they would like to learn.<\/p>\n

Children within the construction area have been motivated in taking on the role of builders, planners ,site managers and gaffers!! Ensuring the health and safety of all workers and visitors to the site by providing hard hats, high visibility vests \u00a0and marking off the area with tape and cones. Children \u00a0have had opportunities to develop and challenge their early literacy skills in the creation of \u00a0signs, posters and creating their own plans and daily lists of jobs that they require to complete in order to get \u201c their wages\u201d. Some of the jobs completed this week have been, renewal of walls, laying flooring, construction of both a police station and airport and building a den . Lots of discussions have taken place to support the children\u2019s awareness of number , measure and size as they problem solve whilst creating and bringing their plans and thoughts to life.<\/p>\n

Practitioners have been taking the lead from the children and supporting them in expressing their ideas and thoughts of \u00a0how \u00a0and where they are going to learn with children supported in their own choices with many sensory experiences being offered daily from shaving foam , \u00a0finger paining ,scented and coloured play dough and potions being created within the water tray. These opportunities encourage the children to develop their control and coordination of their fine movements of their fingers and hands whilst developing the use of their senses.<\/p>\n
