This was another example of playing school. This game started with only a few. One was the teacher reading a book to the other two. The book was one she had made herself. She diligently read each page and made sure to show the pictures. Very quickly there was a circle assembled and others were joining in to hear the stories. Soon they were taking turns each reading their stories. They were consolidating their knowledge about concepts about print, they were actively listening and taking turns and they were reading. It was non-threatening, self-chosen and student-led. It was genuine play and the learning was clear as day. They were making sense of what we do as a class together every day!
