Lightbox: At the beginning of my observation, the lightbox was a center that always had a child in it. The children do spend a significant amount of time (about 10 minutes or more) in this center, building things that are color see through. However, whoever was in this center spends a large amount of time in it, since it’s a small space as well it s limited to two children at a time. It gets less attention than the other centers in the room. Later on in the end, of my observation period, it got less attention.
