Prepare collage and thicker paper for the activity, and collect a selection of magazines for cutting out images.
Invite the children into a circle of friendship and ask them what they would like to learn and who can help them with it. Explain that they will make a poster with their wishes for learning.
Children make their own pictures of what they want to learn using collage paper, cutting out pictures from magazines, or drawing. After that, they paste their works on a large hammer paper as a joint poster.
Start a discussion on how they can achieve what they want and who can help them do this.
Write the children's statements in the cloud or field next to the picture they created.
Over time, return to the poster with the children and talk about how their learning is progressing.
Discuss questions such as:
Add new pictures, drawings, or photos to the poster to illustrate each child’s learning journey and growth.
Movies, fairy tales, and stories for children about success and difficulties encountered along the way.
Stories about the success of famous people and scientists and the difficulties that arose along the way.
Ask parents and grandparents to share their experiences about their learning journey and how they solved problems along the way.
