Hi Catherine,
I love this idea as it seems it could be so child led and really allow them to use their own imagination and skills to learn from themselves and each other so meaningfully. I’m a firm believer that we learn through making mistakes and I think investigating which designs are most effective would really consolidate this learning so well for the children.
I also think your idea lends itself really well to differentiation. Just from reading your post I was imagining the links to fabric and fibre, drama/ aistear, SESE etc. I know in the past I’ve been doing the SESE objectives relating to different types of clothes for different places but I’ve never thought to incorporate space into these lessons. This is definitely something I will try in future.
