Naming Objects Activity

  I made this activity by crochet the object and sew them in the cardboard.  Through object play, children are learning about how the world works through trial and error, and develop their problem-solving skills. They also learn about the shapes, colours, and different objects in their environment.  The area I am developing through this activity is to supports children's cognitive growth, motor skills, problem solving skills, and social interaction.     EYLF Learning Outcomes: 4.3 Children transfer and adapt what they have learned from one context to another   National Quality Standard 4.1.1 – The organisation of educators across the service support children’s learning and development Theorist link Maria Montessori – She believed that play and learning was important in a child’s natural development   Principles and Practices Responsiveness to children

Lego Matching Shape

  I made the resources using old Lego, then I drew the shape on the cardboard.  This activity encourage children practice many learning opportunities such as: ·   fine motor control ·  hand and eye coordination ·  concentration and problem solving ·  simple sorting and matching by shapes ·  early counting   By figuring out how to put each piece into its proper mark, children learn to categorise and eventually name shapes. It will challenge their thinking and exercise their minds.   The area I am developing through this activity is to help children get to know shapes and develop early counting skills.  EYLF Learning Outcomes 4.2 – Children develop a range of skills and processes such as problem solving, inquiry, experimentation, hypothesising, researching, and investigating   National Quality Standard 3.2.2 – Resources,  materials, and equipment allow for multiple uses, are sufficient in number, and enable every child to engage in play-based learning   Theorist Link Maria Montessori – S

Sensory Box

  This sensory box is similar with the sensory frames I've made last time. https://siti-aryani.blogspot.com/2022/08/sensory-frames.html  I made the resources using recycled box, then I glu ed different materials around the box, for children to explore their sensory touch and  to expose them to a range of textures. The area I am developing through this activity is to help children learn and  feel all touch sensations,  such as rough and soft. EYLF Learning Outcomes: 4.3 Children transfer and adapt what they have learned from one context to another.   National Quality Standard 4.1.1 – The organisation of educators across the service support children’s learning and development. Theorist link Piaget’s theories  -  He believes that children need to be able to see,  touch , taste, smell, move and hear the things they are learning about. This is called ‘concrete learning’.   Principles and Practices Responsiveness to children E

Sensory Frames.

  I made the resources using old frames, then I glu ed different materials on top of it for children to explore their sensory touch and  to expose them to a range of textures.

  Rainbow Telescopes I made the telescopes from cardboard tubes/recycled paper towel roll and cellophane paper. This activity will lead children to use the objects, actions & ideas to imitate situations while using their imaginations to designate roles. ​ The children smile while they see the other person from the telescope.   ​ Some babies use the telescopes as a shaker. Some take it as a throw and catch toy. The other hold it as a music instrument as they knock the paper towel roll to the floor. Furthermore, it will challenge children to become more imaginative and creative. It helps them experiment with new ideas and make their own rules. Learning Outcome: 4.1 – Children develop dispositions such as curiosity, cooperation, confidence, creativity, commitment, enthusiasm, persistence, imagination, and reflexivity   National Quality Standard: 3.2.2 – Resources, materials, and equipment allow for multiple uses, are sufficient in number, and enable every child to engage

Mirror Boxes

  I made this activity using acrylic mirror and secured them around recycled boxes. This mirror activity can help children to develop several skills such as: eye-hand coordination, language and listening skills, and imitation. Once a baby's vision begins to develop, they love to look at faces, even their own. Here's how babies can get in on the reflection fun and help support their development. (Some babies use the mirror boxes as a stacking toy instead. This is evident that they are confident and involved learners, as they use play to investigate, imagine and explore ideas).   Learning Outcome: 1.3 - Children develop knowledgeable and confident self-identities 5.3 - Children express ideas and make meaning using a range of media   National Quality Standard: 1.1.1  -  Curriculum decision making contributes to each child’s learning and development outcomes in relation to their identity, connection with community, wellbeing, confidence as learners and effectivenes

Fine Motor Activity Mat

  Fine Motor Activity Mat Fine motor skills are the coordination of small muscle movements – usually involving small, precise thumb, finger, hand, and wrist movements. I made the mat using buttons, zippers, and Velcro, sewn into fabric – to allows children to play with small objects, encourages creativity, and improves hand-eye coordination. Learning Outcome: 4.1 – Children develop dispositions such as curiosity, cooperation, confidence, creativity, commitment, enthusiasm, persistence, imagination, and reflexivity.   National Quality Standard: 4.1.1 – The organisation of educators across the service supports children’s learning and development.   Principle And Practice: Learning through play   Theorist: Loris Malaguzzi — He belief that children are powerful and capable individuals, with the ability and desire to construct their own knowledge
