During centres time, students have free choice within the classroom. \u00a0I have some students who love to read books, some who love to play with Lego, and some who enjoy building with loose parts. Loose parts are small items that can be used for making patterns, pictures or creative arrangements.<\/p>\n

We may have the beginnings of an architect or a carpenter. \u00a0We test out what keys match 6 different locks. We may have a future locksmith in our group.
