How Does Playing Help Us Learn?

For three weeks in April, we have let the students explore electronics and complex materials to see if "playing" with them helps them learn.  We were wondering if the opportunity to create meaning without rigid expectations (other than behavior) would result in the students gaining in skills, confidence, and learning through play.  Here's what they had to say!

How does playing with these materials help you learn?  How does it change your thinking?









It's clear that all students, regardless of age or gender, find the opportunity to learn by hands-on exploration valuable and meaningful! We couldn't agree more!
