CHCECE018 - Physical Environment Supporting Creativity
Posted: Sat Feb 11, 2017 6:20 pm
Hi,
explore how the physical environment ( including open - ended materials and loose parts) can support creativity.
my answer for this question is:
Open – Ended materials
Open ended materials are items with no directions and can be used by themselves or with other materials. They can be carried, lined up, redesigned, taken apart, moved and put back together in multiple ways. The child determines what materials are used and how to use them.
Open ended materials provide multiple uses and endless play. It enables children to be creative and express themselves in play, often using materials to explore and represent other things. There is no pressure to complete an “end product” or bound by limitations.
While playing with open ended materials children are engaged in decision making and problem solving opportunities. By exploring the materials children become innovators, designers, explorers, artists and collaborators as they build, sort, design, manipulate, arrange and stack in a variety of different ways.
Open ended materials can either be natural or manufactured. It’s any type of material they will help a child imagine and create in their own unique way.
Loose parts play materials
In early childhood education settings, loose parts mean alluring, beautiful, found objects and materials that children can move, manipulate, control, and change while they play. Children can carry, combine, redesign, line up, take apart, and put loose parts back together in almost endless ways. The materials come with no specific set of directions, and they can be used alone or combined with other materials.
