Hello Families,
Things have been very exciting in Room 208 this week!! The children have been working hard to create a castle for the Drama learning area.
It all started with one idea. From this one idea, many voices began to suggest other ideas, and it all came down to a vote - should the Drama area be turned into a castle? As you might have guessed the children voted YES!! By the end, the class had created a list of all the materials and props they would need to successfully create a castle.
Throughout the week, children have been working very hard to create items such as thrones, beds, the castle itself, crowns, artwork, scenery, flowers, animals, and people. But before that, lots of planning and negotiating had to be done! Children have been able to get a sense that things often don't happen over night and take time. The true value of collaborative teamwork can be seen as children realize the more they work together the more they can achieve.
Stay tuned as all the planning and hard work continues!
Here are some shots of all the work that has been happening:
Looking forward to see this big project...yay!!
