Global Play Day 2017!

Today, my class participated in Global School Play Day




Thank you to the Bedley Brothers and Twitter for introducing me to this project!  The power of a Personal Learning Network (PLN) triumphs again!



I was heavily influence to participate in #GSPD after listening to this eye opening presentation:

On Friday, I emailed parents, shared "The Decline of Play" video, and asked for games to be brought in for our #GSPD event. On Wednesday, we had a few curricular blocks, but we were able to have two solid play sessions.
The sessions were sensational!

First, we talked about kindness in our Second Step 

lesson, and how to help one another. We talked about

 sharing and allowing all to play.



Let's Play!

We build Jenga towers and stacked them on trucks 
 

We played multi-player games

Shared baseball cards and made an array  


Legos


Guessed who'd done it in Clue 

 

We played balancing games


We made a movie



We used our imagination to play





Created domino mazes
