Learning Through Play

 Learning Through Play


Two weeks ago, we started a session called LTP (Learning Through Play). Room 1, 2, 3 and 4 are participating in this learning. Our options were Planet Construction, Makey Makey, Junky Monkey and Cardboard Nation. (My favorite one was Junky Monkey).

Room 1: Planet Construction

Over in room 1, they had Planet Construction. In Planet Construction you could build creations with Lego and other items (I forgot what they were called ). Some weeks we got to have free play and create whatever we want but other weeks, there are themes or challenges on what to create.

Room 2: Makey Makey

Next door from room 1, there is room 2 with Makey Makey. During Makey Makey, like room 1, some weeks you can discover whatever you want while other weeks you have to discover what is on the board (I like doing the free play more). PS: Room 2 is my class.

Room 3: Junky Monkey

My favorite LTP place is Junky Monkey. In Junky Monkey  you can take apart toys and put them together in a different way (things can get really weird here). One time I was doing Junky Monkey, i took apart grumble fart (a grumbley monster that grumbles and farts) and gave him a massive hair cut! In Junky Monkey, every week you can make whatever you want!

Room 4: Cardboard Nation

Last but not least we have room 4 with Cardboard Nation. In Cardboard Nation, you can make anything out of cardboard (hinst the name). There is not only cardboard but also moving parts but you can not take the moving parts home (so don't get too excited).

I hope that reading this has made you interested in our LTP. What is your favorite LTP activity?
