The boys seemed particularly invested in building
with the blocks today. Janet has taken
moments, here and there, over the past few months to provide more guided
experiences in the block area. It seems
that the students better understand the potential there is in building to be
expressive and creative. It will be fun to see what they do with this form of
play and how we can maybe incorporate light and shadow experiences into these
moments.

The students seemed disinterested in using the paint brushed. Some paint ended up on the table and Janet encouraged the boys to just use it. The experience was much more fulfilling from that point on.
