Block Play

On Friday the children had the opportunity to use the resources in Room 12.  The boys have been looking forward to using the blocks and cars.

George and Manaki went and gathered all the blocks and cars.  The boys worked together discussing, planning and building their creation.  After awhile I went over and asked them what they had built.

George told me that they had built a track for motorbikes and stock cars so they can jump.  Manaki told me that the big tower is for space rockets.  The lower part of the tower smashes the cars. 

The boys certainly enjoyed their time creating.  It was great to sit back and watch the boys work together sharing their ideas.

The start of the creation.
