Use light up or glow in the dark objects, metallic/shiny ones, natural resources such as pine cones, leaves, conkers, flowers, stones or seeds – the possibilities are endless! The more exciting, active and challenging the provocations are, the more each child will engage, allowing a far greater depth of understanding to be developed. Include dressing up items, a treasure chest and key, pirate books, treasure, a scroll and treasure map. These inspiring provocations will ignite a learning spark and offer breadth and depth of experience for every child. Exploring natural materials can enhance sensory development and lead to children using their own creativity whilst learning.

Objects can be everyday items and children might discuss what they are made of and what they are used for.

Loose parts are materials and resources that have no pre-planned use; they can be natural or synthetic, they can be moved, combined with other resources, lined up, deconstructed and constructed again. Artefacts provide opportunities for your pupils to engage with kinesthetic resources that will give a “sense of period” and enhance historical understanding, enquiry and fascination.Toy Story Pig character illustration, Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue Sheriff Woody Jessie Slinky Dog, John Tory, mammal, buzz Lightyear, pixar png 600x547px 239.
