The children at BestStart Judea became investigators as they explored a range of natural items with magnifying glasses. They had a close look at bark, shell, wood rounds and cicada shells. The children learnt about how the cicada sheds it shells and that the shell is left on the surface it shed from. The children also talked about what they saw and how each object felt. This learning experience supports children to engage socially, see things from different spatial viewpoints while using a magnifying glass, as well as making sense of the natural world.
