Overall Group Learning Experience Evaluation

What worked during this learning experience? Why?

Having everything pre cut made it a lot easier. Having many different colours to
choose from was great because the child had a wide selection to choose form.
Working in steps helped not to rush the activity.

What did not work during this learning experience? Why?

The may thing did not work was the fake hay got very messy and the children
would throw it or put to much on their nest.

What might you do differently in the future?

Next time I would bring in gems and glitter to make the birds stand out more.
