Marbles, Marbles, Marbles
The Marble run was still a huge interest in our classroom this week! We decided to add marbles into other areas of the classroom. We added marbles to the Art centre and did marble painting. We added PVC piping to the construction area, in hopes the students would create their own marble run, they did!
It was really neat to see the children using the blocks and PVC piping to create elaborate mazes for the marbles.

Waterfalls in the block area!
The waterfalls, and rivers in the construction area was one of the neatest things to happen this week.
a group of children worked together to create a large waterfall. There was a lot of rich conversation, and advance problem solving skills between group members!

Designing a Dino!
As a continuation of last weeks designing a dinosaur project, the students had the opportunity to create the dino they designed out of clay. They really worked hard to make the dinosaur they had designed on paper come to life.
