The Easel is All Yours

Towards the end of the school year I took an easel and chart paper into the classroom. It wasn't for me to use. The classroom belongs to the children and (almost) everything that can be seen is for the children to use. That includes the easel and chart paper. The artist in the room spent hours at the easel drawing her creations.

Yarn Trap

The yarn was used to make a trap. It was tied to a picture frame and a basket. Each was positioned on shelves across from one another. The children had to go "under" the trap to get to the carpet for whole class time. There was a lot of sharing of ideas, problem solving, and use of the positional language "over" and "under" and "around".
