Reflection:
We did this activity in class with Teacher Nancy. First, she told us, "I want you to take out a blank sheet of paper and draw a little pig," and we all drew a pig. Some of us shared our drawings on the screen. Then, she said, "Now, listen and follow my instructions. Make a circle," and then she told us to make another circle. At that moment, I was thinking, "What are we doing? This doesn't look like any familiar shape." She continued giving us instructions until we had formed a little pig.
What is my reflection? This is how children feel when we simply tell them, "Glue this" or "Put this here with glue," but we don't give them any background story beforehand. In those moments, they feel lost, unlike when we read them a book or explain in advance what activity we are going to do.
