Learning Through Play

This week our reading rotation changed format.  Rather than going through a set of tasks chosen by the teacher, students can choose from a number of learning through play stations.  While this is happening students are pulled out to work with the teacher one on one or in groups.  During the two days we have had it going it has been extremely successful!  Students are managing themselves and making good choices about where they can focus their time.  Some students chose to work alone, some chose to work with one other and others where in big groups.  It was great to hear the conversations around the room and see the different way people chose to use the same equipment.  This seems like a really positive change to our programme!
