Sometimes life just grabs me by the – facebook pic 🙂
This thing happened on social media last night and I got permission, y’all. I got permission.
Did someone say temple, Abraham Pace of Toys, Tech, and Labyrinths?
(I know, you said tabernacle, but let’s go with it!)
Need a close up? Look at this –
Play is powerful.
So is recognition.
And I’ve been known to use a few incentives to allow children (and parents) to know clearly what it is that I’m trying to teach.
One fall, I actually did a LEGO challenge.Children earned a LEGO piece for things such as attendance, memory work, church mission project participation, etc. On the last Sunday of that season, there was a LEGO building challenge. Children could join with their friends and combine pieces or work alone.
Tallest. Largest. Most Creative.
We chose some fun superlatives to praise at the end of competition.
So let’s have a little blog competition.
LOGAN GIUSTI IS GOING TO CHOOSE THE WINNER!
Anyone. Any age.
Submit your beingmissmelanie LEGO creations right down in the comment section below. I’m going to encourage Logan to give extra points to those who can tie in their creation with a beingmissmelanie post (keep it G rated, folks!) or a story in The Stories Curriculum.
Similar play is a mainstay of my little people curriculum and I add creative play to SEASONS AND SACRAMENTS for older ones, too.
Godly Play and Catechesis of the Good Shepherd helped refine my play purpose.
BACK TO THE LEGO CONTEST!
