Cardboard Chaos Method

The Cardboard Chaos Method is when we upcycle and recycle cardboard to use in our lessons to enhance our learning experiences.  This method can be very versatile and can create lots of excitement around topics and allow children to take a playful angle to their learning.   For example, the children are learning about Vikings.  They have all brought in cardboard boxes and they spend the morning making a giant Viking ship with the cardboard they have and gaffa tape.  In the afternoon the children act out some scenes and pretend they are Vikings.
