Tamariki venturing into geli-pad printing at Lake Tekapo Kindergarten

Lake Tekapo KindergartenOctober 2, 2024

This is a new medium, which we have been experimenting with how it works, what kind of paint works, what sort of patterns we can make etc.

Learning encapsulated within a experience at kindergarten...

  • Tamariki are engaging in science as they mix and layer colours.

  • Math learning is occurring as tamariki observe patterns.

  • A lot of language is happening as we learn new terminology as well as have discussions around what does and doesn’t work.

  • Development of working theories as we learn through trial and error and see what happens.

  • Social skills are developing as we observe one another and wait for our turns, making suggestions along the way.

 

This is a new experience for us and we are enjoying learning how to make it work.
