LOOSE PARTS PLAYLet students loose with loose parts. When let loose to figure something out on your own, amazing things happen. Materials: loose parts (random objects, toys, household items). Play without distraction, and without a specific outcome, fosters abstract thinking and problem-solving skills. Loose parts are items a student can incorporate into their play. They can be moved or manipulated, arranged and rearranged in numerous ways. Have fun and let the student lead the creation.
