You Can See It

Like the layers on a cake, knowledge is built.. Like a block tower, knowledge is built block by block layer by layer, if you watch closely, you can see it.




We observe for this growth and development of understanding, the construction of new knowledge.  Children's play is so full of it... it's in everything they do, If you look closely, you can see it.



When a child goes from filling and dumping to filling and transporting then dumping.

Then to filling, transporting, refilling, then dumping.

 Then later repeating these actions while adding tools, adding ramps, and adding additional play partners.

We are seeing their understanding grow, their intrinsic interest deepen, and the difficulty level rise.  If you look closely, you can see it.
