Pots for Drums

There were only 7  music instruments (a hand drum, a wooden xylophone, a triangle, castanets, cymbals and a shaker) so one of the children picked up two of the metal pots that were in the Home Center to use. 

Innovation, sense of community, problem solving.

The  children then followed the leader who had the triangle while a familiar  song "The Ants Go Marching" was played.

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".
