Course Description

Six Bricks is an incredibly powerful way of applying a methodology based on strong pedagogy, principles and practices with more than 100 skill-building activities that you can do daily with your class. The Six Bricks activities are short, simple exercises or games designed to wake up the brain and get the child moving, thinking and remembering. They are not intended to be a curriculum, but they do support all areas of development in the curriculum.

This training module supports you in delivering interactive and developmentally appropriate play to every child in your class.

The  course includes videos of many of the activities in action to provide you with the confidence to apply the Six Bricks methodology. Be inspired to tap your inner creative self to craft Six Bricks into the diverse activities that comprise your week-to-week curriculum learner outcomes. We reveal and model the techniques which you then take and apply to your own lessons.
