The children have taken wood shop to another level! The children use nails,hammers, wood and screws in the classroom to build different things, but one day they started to make their own creations out of all the hardware in our wood shop area! It was amazing to see all the things that were made out of such little pieces...
Some of our creations:
Paint Hook-By:Samuel
A Deer By:Isela
Umbrella-By:Noah
This animate was adapted from a talk given at the RSA by Sir Ken Robinson, world-renowned education and creativity expert and recipient of the RSA's Benjamin Franklin award.
Please take time to listen, the animate is about 12 minutes long. Enjoy!
The children all sat around the table and talked about what they were creating...
The children have learned to use these materials with respect. They were very careful to put on each piece exactly where they thought it should go...
Some of our creations:
Sword By: Bishop
We believe strongly in providing the children with the opportunity to explore materials and foster their creativity. It was interesting to see how the children put the hardware together and the descriptions they gave. The following animation describes the importance of creativity and divergent thinking.
