They are engaging in conversations about how they're building and why they're building and making meaningful cooperative discussions about what they could change or what they love about their friends' creations. Outside the stepping stones are requested daily as they move them around in different patterns, building their core muscles and balancing. \r\n\r\nThe activities have been used around the classroom and have added enjoyment in learning through play. The activities have added different ways my students can explore the world.
