'Scrapstore Playpods' - Imaginative Play in Action

Most impressed with this initiative in the UK.

 'The Scrapstore PlayPod® is a holistic process that works with the entire school community to change both the human and physical play environment transforming play at lunchtimes.'

It is awesome to see students collaborating, problem solving, creating and using their imaginations in their play. Students are totally engaged in their play at lunchtimes and teachers are noticing the benefits. It is fantastic to see, in this video clip, the school embracing learning through play. Our continuing challenge is to have this approach throughout the curriculum.   Check out the website here.
