When I am working in the Block Center I am learning:

·        Concepts of shape, size, length and location

·        To create and repeat patterns, developing math skills

·        To cooperate with others and work together

·        To problem solve as I construct with blocks

·        To expand my expressive language as I talk about building and constructing with blocks

·        To organize my world using symbolic representation

·        To increase my large and small muscle coordination

·        To see my ideas take form

·        To experiment with balance and movement

·        About different types of homes and buildings

·        How to compare size, weight, height, etc.

·        How to measure, count and place objects in order
