Loose Parts Assignment
Read the article, The Power of Loose Parts in the Loose Parts folder in blackboard. The idea of loose parts was developed by Simon Nicholson, an architect. The Loose Parts philosophy is constructing more open ended opportunities for creative engagement than static materials and environments. Natural or synthetic loose parts can be in different shapes, sizes, and colors. The play possibilities of loose parts are endless, while encouraging creativity.
