Taking Turns

After a long weekend, the Pine kids were anxious to get back to playing with one another in different spaces in the building. This morning, a few of the kids found a way to set up a ball track using the large blue blocks in the collaboratory. L & B were quite intrigued by the way the heavy ball rolled along the hollowed out blocks. Since there was only one ball and two kids, the only thing to do was share! 

After L pushed the ball down the ramp, she picked it up and handed the ball to B. His face lilt up with joy as he realized it was now his turn to push the ball on the track.

How could they make a propeller? What does a propeller look like? The kids got to work on some research about wh...
