You don't realise how much art is out there in the community, until you go look for it! How driving to places I now have noticed myself observing the different art and materials around me not only in my neighbourhood but also around Melbourne. Every artwork has a meaning and a purpose behind it but everyone interpret things differently which shows the beauty of materiality.]]> 2022-08-25 00:41:25 UTC https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270740957 teniqueborg https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270745769 One Hundred Languages Poem- Loris Malaguzzi
"The child is made of one hundred.
The child has a hundred languages
a hundred hands
a hundred thoughts
a hundred ways of thinking of
playing, of speaking.
A hundred always a hundred
ways of listening of marveling of
loving
a hundred joys for singing and
understanding
a hundred worlds to discover
a hundred worlds to invent
a hundred worlds to dream.
The child has a hundred languages
(and a hundred hundred hundred
more)
but they steal ninety-nine.
The school and the culture
separate the head from the body.
Paper manipulation
They tell the child:
to think without hands
to do without head
to listen and not to speak
to understand without joy
to love and to marvel
only at Easter and Christmas.
They tell the child:
to think without hands
to do without head
to listen and not to speak
to understand without joy
to love and to marvel
only at Easter and Christmas.
Paper manipulation
They tell the child:
to discover the world already there
and of the hundred
they steal ninety-nine.
They tell the child:
that work and play
reality and fantasy
science and imagination
Sky and earth
reason and dream
are things
that do not belong together.
Paper manipulation
And thus they tell the child
that the hundred is not there.
The child says:
No way. The hundred is there."

"We started with "useless" "used- up," ordinary paper waiting to be removed and recycled. We interrupted this material's flow as it moved from bin to recycling depot. We wanted to try to understand paper, to understand what it might mean to be with paper, as we stepped into the flow of paper on its way from one place to another. We wondered: What if we think of paper as a material worthy of attention? A material with its own movements, histories, and possibilities? What if we think of paper as a material with potential to move us as we work with it?" (Pacini-Ketchabaw 2016)]]> 2022-08-25 00:56:25 UTC https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270758185 teniqueborg https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270762764 Reflection on Paper
I took a piece of paper for granted as a material, I never really thought in depth about the properties of paper or how might we move and use paper in different ways. Expressing and connecting with paper allows us to understand the different movements and being with the paper. "To know paper in this way is not just to describe its properties or attributes, but to learn how it moves and to describe what happens to it as it shifts. mixes, modifies, mutates. Ingold emphasizes that materials are their verbs and their doings: We paper. We paint. And so we wanted to pay attention to materials' action words."

I now find myself observing and looking at the recycling to see what junk materials I can find and repurpose. 

Another person's trash is another child's treasure. There are endless possibilities to loose parts, the beauty of junk materials is creating new play tools and resources. Upcycling and reusing]]> 2022-08-25 01:06:30 UTC https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270768362 teniqueborg https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270772522 At the first glance of an Adventure playground it looks like a junk yard filled with different junk materials, to a child it's an opportunity to explore and express their imagination, move with and use junk materials in different ways. It is an opportunity to discover and explore risks with materials, all the materials have different purposes to them and the children find different uses for them in their play.]]> 2022-08-25 01:10:43 UTC https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270772522 teniqueborg https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270776392 Reflection 
Loose parts is an important part of allowing children to explore not only their imagination but how they move with and engage with different materials. Before this unit I had my own stash of loose parts, natural and recycled materials I add too often that I find around the house. I find that allowing the children to use these loose parts in their own way allows us to understand and capture their thinking process, empowering their own learning and decision making.]]> 2022-08-25 01:14:14 UTC https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270776392 teniqueborg https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270778992 2022-08-25 01:16:26 UTC https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270778992 teniqueborg https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270780108 2022-08-25 01:17:17 UTC https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270780108 teniqueborg https://padlet.com/teniqueborg/n8f9i2cch3rcpfmg/wish/2270791016 Different movements whilst handling Clay

I have come to discover it'll be an important part of my
curriculum. Clay gives the children an opportunity to explore and create art, manipulating and building on their imagination. "Offering this clay to young children communicates our deep regard for their rights as learners and for their competence as artists. It is an invitation into the centuries-old tradition of working with the earth." (Pelo 2016, p 92)
