The children have been exploring making their own choices while decorating junk modelling pieces which have been put on display in the nursery. The children were given a variety of colours of paint and different resources such as different sized brushes, rollers and sponges to decorate their boxes. Once dry the children could add additional decorations of their choice from different types of papers, straws, cotton wool, tissue and other resources. Some children worked on their models over a period of a few days, adapting and changing them. This demonstrates creating and thinking critically and promotes democracy, one of our St Marys Values, encouraging and teaching children to make heir own decisions. The complete models have been used to create a space rocket in the book area or displayed on our celebration shelf above the construction area. Come in and take a look.
