Here's another way to vote for us!
As you know, we have entered a contest and are hoping for your votes!
Through our partnership with Natural Pod
we were invited to enter 5 'Invitations to Play' to win a Natural Play Classroom.
Click on their name to find out more about Natural Pod and their philosophy about play.

They have a Facebook site that makes voting as easy as 
clicking on each link then clicking on 'VOTE'.

We still need votes! 

PLEASE SHARE THIS POST AND 
INVITE EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO VOTE TOO!


Entry 1 - Mrs. St. Onge put her special touch on this invitation at the light table. 

This Natural Pod light table is always busy and home to curiosity, discovery and imagination. Mrs. St. Onge brings together the children's interest in building and adds in natural materials.

Shining a light on open materials.

 


Entry 2 - Block play and dramatic play go hand in hand. Mrs. Brent invites the children to become part of the animal world. An insect laden tree, a wild kingdom valley and a reptile lair between them offers the children many ways to enter into play and understanding about living creatures.

Form, fun and fables come together in this invitation to play in the block cente. 




Entry 3 - Hearing children engaged in 'fairy play' gave Mrs. Pizzuto an idea. Fairies need a place to live...and so began Fairy Land. Ms. Lecoq set up a creation station and helped the children construct  furniture and fairies. Many fairies now live in Fairy Land, each with unique abilities and all with their own story.

Fairy tales and free play. The creation of Fairy Land. 




Entry 4 - Head out on a nature walk in the wonderful world of kindergarten and you'll find groups of children gathered near Mrs. Pizzuto and Mrs. St. Onge as they help the children discover oh-so-much about the natural world. Bringing the outdoors in and offering an invitation to play in the art studio inspires sculpted nature scenes.

Entry 5 - There's always a reason to go outside to play! This day, windy weather was our inspiration. Ms. Lecoq, together with student teachers Miss Wilkins and Miss Garrett were the assistants to a crew of kite makers. Our wonderful wagon is a regular invitation to play and was packed for just such a day with an addition of colourful ribbons. Kites and ribbons in hand...the wind, the wagon and the wonderful world of kindergarten played and played.

Outdoors...the original play station.
