CHCECE017 - Scenario: Mya - Building Blocks

Post by PaigeBradley » Thu Jan 28, 2016 2:03 pm

Mya is 4 and is playing with the large mega blocks in your centre she builds them up very quickly and knocks them down just as fast.
She is becoming bored with this activity, how would you introduce a different method of building to challenge her emerging skills and capabilities? Write about the resources you would offer and what you would say to encourage Mya.


Im stuck on the provide a different method part,
I would provide Mya other toys she is interested in, cars or dolls to add to her buildings then ask if she could build the dolls a house or the cars a garage or a road to drive on.

Yes, you can add figuring to the blocks so she can build a zoo or a house for the toys.

You can roll a dice, help her to count how many on the dice and she has to make a tower from the number of the dice, until it falls down.

Make patterns out of the blocks, she has to copy.

Hope this gives you some ideas,
