Making Paper Dolls
Today we read a book about a girl who had some paper dolls, her mother had made them for her. When we had finished the story I asked the children if they would like to make some paper dolls. Of course they said yes so we discussed what we had to do to make the paper dolls. We experimented on how to make them and when we were satisfied with what we had the children decided what colours they were going to use and how they were going to decorate their dolls. While the children were doing this there was a lot of discussion going on and the children were using a lot of skills such as listening, turn taking, communication and using strategies for active exploration, thinking and reasoning.
