This year, I have introduced a Curiosity Cube to our classroom in order to promote curiosity, communication and exploration.

Every Monday, an item will be placed in the Curiosity Cube for the children to discuss. They will be encouraged throughout the week to talk about what they can see, what they think it might be or what the items might be used for.

The children have enjoyed trying to work out what is in our Curiosity Cube this week and it’s been wonderful listening to them discuss their idea with friends. Some ideas we’ve had so far are:

1. Material used to make shoes.
2. Part of a basket.
3. Material from an Egyptian dress.
4. Part of a bandage to wrap up mummies!

The children are looking forward to finding out if any of their ideas are right at the end of the week. Well done boys and girls – keep on being curious!
