Our job as an educator is to provide challenges for children by choosing equipment and materials that can be used in multiple ways, and allowing the indoor and outdoor learning environment to be regularly rearranged or adjusted with the help of children.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;climb-steps&#8221;]Case Study \u2013 Airplanes<br \/>\nDuring free play Miss Eliza and Thomas engaged in a game of travel using the toy airplanes to visit different destinations around the preschool room. This play session related back to Will\u2019s visit to Tasmania he discussed on Tuesday. Thomas stated, \u201cairplanes have tyres you know!\u201d Miss Danielle carefully listened to Thomas\u2019 attempt to expand on his thinking through conversing and questioning him \u201cwhy?\u201d \u201cThe tyres make the plane roll before it takes off\u201d Thomas stated. It wasn\u2019t long before the topic of airplanes became a group discussion where the children made connections between experiences they had with airplanes that related to the conversation.<br \/>\n\u201cAirplanes work with an engine that helps them fly. I know because my mum said that\u201d shared Leo. The children actively contributed to the group discussion about airplanes and explored ideas with one another as to how an airplane is built, how it operates and who works on the plane to ensure safe\/enjoyable flights for passengers. \u201cThe plane has a driver and someone that helps the driver!\u201d stated Laura. \u201cThe driver is called a pilot\u201d added Tom. \u201cThere are passengers on the plane that need to go to school for 3 hours, so they go in the plane and see what\u2019s in there. When they\u2019re on there they can see planets like Jupiter and Saturn!\u201d Jasmine told her friends.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;670&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;climb-steps&#8221;]After researching information on the smart board, the children suggested we make our own airplane in the room and that we could fly to Big W. Miss Eliza and Miss Rhiannon challenged and assisted the children with building an airplane made solely with material and resources found in the room. This activity provided the children with a task that required investigating ideas through trial and error. Miss Eliza became involved with the children during this activity by following instructions to help construct the Preschool Room airplane. \u201cThe tables can be the walls and the chairs can be the seats!\u201d suggested Will C. \u201cWe could use pillows as the tyres\u201d said Oliver. \u201cAnd then this bucket for the pilot to use to drive\u201d said Thomas. Together the pre-schoolers resourced their own learning through connecting with one another to build the plane.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Learning new skills with natural material<\/strong><br \/>\nFinley investigated a new idea today through play by learning how to weave with natural material. Miss Kerrie provided Finley with access to a range of plant material from the environment to assist her learning process. Finley engaged in the activity of weaving which required lots of hand and eye coordination as she learnt to place the branches over one string and under the other.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;671&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;climb-steps&#8221;]While Finley was busy weaving, Miss Kerrie modelled appreciation for the environment by saying \u201cFinley, these are native plants which grow in our environment and don\u2019t use a lot of water. Some of the plants are grevilleas, wattle, native jasmine and Miss Kerrie pruned them yesterday so that they would come back bigger next spring. Finley, this one is salt bush. See how the leaves are a different colour. This plant is one the cows eat in the drought.\u201d<br \/>\nMiss Kerrie ensured that Finley experienced pride in achieving a new skill by responding \u201cFinley, you have learnt this skill really quickly. Miss Kerrie is very proud of you. Did you enjoy it?\u201d Finley acknowledged non-verbally by nodding her head.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3><em><strong>Practice is shaped by meaningful engagement with families and community<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;672&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]The case study below shows us how to solve two problems. Firstly, the room has a group of busy boys that come four and five days a week. These boys get bored and don\u2019t always like being in the room or centre. This has resulted in the room having \u2018on the spot excursions\u2019 to get them out and about before difficult behaviours occur. Secondly, see how the educator Rhiannon has skillfully weaved in the new exceeding theme 3 Engagement with families and communities. The service\u2019s use and organisation of space and resources:[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;saffron-back&#8221;]\u2981 reflects the unique geographical, cultural and community context of the service<br \/>\n\u2981 welcomes, respects and draws on the voices, priorities and strengths of the children and families at the service<br \/>\n\u2981 engages in sustainable practices within the service and support environmental awareness and responsibility across the service community. Great work Rhiannon.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Case Study \u2013 Busy boys&#8230;<br \/>\nThis morning Archie noticed that the Preschool children were not in their room. \u201cWhere did preschool go Miss Rhiannon?\u201d asked Archie. \u201cPreschool went on an excursion to a big school,\u201d explained Miss Rhiannon. \u201cCan we go on an excursion?\u201d asked everyone excitedly at the same time. \u201cOf course we can,\u201d replied Miss Rhiannon. The children shared happiness and satisfaction as they put their vests on and found a place on the rope ready to leave. During our excursion we walked around the Business Park, having conversations about all the businesses and what we could see. As we walked past the smash repairers Patrick noticed there was an ambulance. \u201cLook there\u2019s an ambulance,\u201d said Patrick. Miss Kerry explained, \u201cthe ambulance is over there so it can be fixed fast and work again.\u201d \u201cYeah, the ambulance helps us get better when we\u2019re sick,\u201d replied Ava, exploring the connection between people in the community (LO 2.3).<br \/>\nThe children noticed that there was some rubbish on the ground during our walk. \u201cWhy is there lots of rubbish on the ground? That\u2019s not good for the animals,\u201d said Ella. Miss Rhiannon discussed the ways the life and health of living things are interconnected (LO 2.4) as she explained, \u201cthat\u2019s right Ella. If we put rubbish on the ground it will make the animals sick because they will eat it and it will make the grass sick as well and it won\u2019t grow, and that\u2019s why we have to put our rubbish in the bin.\u201d This concept of where our rubbish goes will be explored further in the coming days.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;menu-ret-post&#8221;]<a href=\"\/karla-learning\/\"><i class=\"fa fa-arrow-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> Return to Menu<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<br \/>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[vc_row el_class=\"bg-section1 quality-areas\"][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text el_class=\"pink-back\"]Resources, materials and equipment allow for multiple uses, are sufficient in number, and enable every child to engage in play-based learning.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=\"668\" img_size=\"full\"][vc_column_text]The checklist below covers the basics of meeting the NQS Element.
