FEATURES OF BLOQ
Who said tables and chairs had to have legs? Open minds and challenge preconceptions with Bloq.
So simple and so brilliant. Kids instantly understand Bloq and immediately use it as a seat, a worksurface or to sprawl over when reading. Opens minds with the possibility that chairs don’t have to look like chairs and not all tables have legs…
When you first look at Bloq you might not see what it’s for, but your pupils will. They will love moving it to where they want it and using how they see fit. They might sit on a Bloq (at a table or just on its own), they might kneel on the floor (possibly with a cushion) and use it as a worksurface or they might line up a couple of Bloqs and lie across them. Pupils can also pair it with a ZigZag to create an independent workstation in a quiet corner, or you can gather a group of Bloqs and ZigZags for small group work.
Bloqs bring energy and momentum into a learning space because they end up in a different place every day, which creates variety, they get used in lots of different ways and they are great fun. Who would have thought a simple cuboid could deliver so much! You could even use them as a learning resource when looking at fractions or 3D shapes.
Movement is vital for children to maintain their concentration, it enables oxygen to flow to the brain and helps them express their natural restlessness. Being able to choose how and where to work means each child can decide what works best for them and take greater responsibility for their learning. Enabling choice also means the learning space is better able to meet the diverse needs of its pupils.
