“Having the bricks farm in the classroom was an amazing opportunity for my kids to develop their oral language and writing skills. They loved giving all of the animals names and loved working collaboratively to build all of the pieces and decide how they wanted to lay them all out. It continues to be a fantastic independent task that is still fan favourite.”
