Structures – We Haven’t Forgotten!

The children are still heavily involved in constructing in Room 4.  Today there were two noteworthy developments:

First, the children indoors made an elaborate camping area in the block area using many different types of materials.

Second, the children outdoors added colored masking tape to their large crate/hollow block structures.

It will be interesting to see if the tape is used in this way tomorrow, too.  It seemed to be decorative as well as a structural element (joining pieces together).  It is great observing the children’s development of structures.  They continue to build upon previous experiences and add new materials to their work.
