Knot between you and world around
During the sitting activity I found a tree way past the shed, which had nice long branches stretching out so much that it arcs down to the ground creating a very nice dome. It had a nice thick trunk on a angle that I could lean against which makes a perfect reading tree or even napping tree. There is something about finding places like these out there that you can feel personal connection to as your secrete spots. It can be a place of comfort when you need to run away for a bit. Trees in places such as the garden, it is possible that it will be there for a long time, and it can be a place that is a constant in live. Not a place where you come out for little bit to feel refreshed, somewhere you can come back to whenever you need to.
Making knots was a interesting experience. One thing that it provides the creator is sense of accomplishments. This is important because it is what give us courage to solve the next questions and problems and have confidence in the solution they come up with. It is possible to get wrong answer, then you just have to try again and not give up. This is especially important for physics and math because students are often unsure of their method and solution that they question their approach and happy to just seek out help before giving meaningful attempt.
Working with material give us opportunity to learn about material as you are working on project. It is a experiment on its own where students can learn about nature of the material and what they are capable of. This goes back to basic nature of science where you are conducting experiments and through experiences we learn about the nature and figure out how things work in the world.
