Thanks to Teacher Tom and Alderwood House School for the inspiration (and the challenge...)! We may be amateurs at the tape thing, but we're learning fast. Some are also learning that you can cut your way out of a tape blocked area, which is causing some drama, but we'll see how Tuesday goes!
This reminds me of when my daughter learned to tie knots and the kitchen was stringed all over with wool she tied from every available handle / chair / table leg. When they need to practise a new skill there's no stopping them!
ReplyDeleteThe big challenge here, for this group, is ripping the tape. Some are persevering through the struggle, and some are getting scissors. But once one rips once, they feel great, and I thin some of the motivation for "more tape" is "more ripping"!
ReplyDeleteAmateurs? I think not! "More tape" is the secret and it sounds like they've learned that one. More tape! =)
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful! I think that they are definitely raising the bar on "tape creativity!"
ReplyDeletewoo hoo! it's on! (nice photos, by the way!)
ReplyDeleteoh, i know that drama so well. it only increases when an innocent passerby gets wrapped in tape. drama.
ReplyDeleteWhat great tape creations! Guess I need to get the tape out again.
ReplyDeleteOnly a few innocent people have been accidentally taped. It is usually a side effect of "You hold the roll and I'll walk to the other side of the room"-- anything in the way is fair game to get stuck. We still have two more days of taping ahead of us, and then we are having a tape-off party!
ReplyDeleteone of the teachers decided to 'allow' the children to tape her up. and soon other children, appalled, were cutting her out of the tape trap. great empathy conversations soon ensued...
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have yourself some tape professionals there ;) Our web fell down over the weekend so we had fun today rolling it into a ball, so the tape lives to play another day!
