Summary

This is the first time for me to do the project. At the beginning, I

observed children in the child care and found their cue. I than talked with them

and created the web with their ideas. Based on children’s interests, we had

many opportunities to explore with construction. We read some books about

construction, and used different kinds of block to build our own construction

such as tower, house. I provided some pictures of the constructions in the

different countries, such as the Great Wall, the Tower Bridge, the Pyramids,

and so on. That children could know more information about the famous

buliding of the world.

During this process, I learned more from our children and got a lot of

good experiences with children.
