Today I had one of the best lessons ever! To be honest it had nothing to do with the curriculum, but everything to do with fun, creativity and positivity in school. Like most of what I think are the best learning exeriences it was organic and basically unplanned.
After a particularly arduous rehearsal for the Christmas production I felt that the children needed a bit of a lift. I decided to let them loose on Pivot Stick Animator which I’ve been looking at for a while.
I decided to take a bit of a risk and announced that there eadbgoing to be a competition to see who could make their man do the best breakdance. I played the children a track from my iPhone and them let them loose. No instructions of anything.
I was amazed by the results that you can see bellow.
The children were completely engaged, belong each other, laughing and learning! It really was one of those moments that you’ll remember.
