PART 1
Purpose
Your goal is to design a real outdoor play provocation using natural materials. You will explore nature, create a meaningful setup for children, and reflect on how it can spark curiosity, creativity, and learning.
Directions
- Explore and Gather:
- Spend time outdoorssuch as in a park, garden, or schoolyardand collect 57 natural materials (e.g., stones, leaves, sticks, pinecones, shells).
- Before collecting them, take photos of the materials in their natural environment, so we can see where they came from.
2. Create an Inviting Play Experience
Use the materials you collected to set up a simple, inviting play experience for a specific age group (e.g., preschool, kindergarten, or grades 1-3).
- Take a photo of your inviting play experience.
- Description of your setup: What did you arrange and how did you arrange it?
- Additional classroom materials (if used): Explain what you added and why it enhances exploration.
- Developmental goals: Describe which areas of development your setup supports (cognitive, social, emotional, or physical).
- Connection to course readings: Explain how the outdoor environment and natural materials shape childrens play choices.
3. Reflect in a Journal Entry (200-300 words):
Use these prompts to guide your reflection:
- How does nature inspire curiosity, problem-solving, or cooperation?
- What dispositions or habits of mind might children develop as they engage with your provocation?
Submit:
- Photos of your natural materials before collecting them
- Photos of your completed invitation play space
- Details of your inviting play space as described above
- Written reflection
