FIELD EXPERIENCE
A walk on campus provided the
children a direct experience with building structures like the chapel and the
law building. Clipboards and pencils were provided to the children so they could record
their observations. The children's discussions of shapes and various parts like
windows, steps, doors, statues, etc. enhanced their knowledge and enabled them
to start planning their own future constructions.
