Change to Dramatic Play Centre

 

It is the afternoon students who have a turn to decide what the dramatic play centre should be. Some of their ideas were:

 

Bakery Store

 

Grocery Store

 

Pizza Place

 

Hair Salon

 

And the winner is the Bakery Store. The change to to Bakery will take place on January 27th. So if you have some wonderful things to make our bakery successful all donations would greatly be accepted. We do have measuring cups and some bowls and some small cupcake tins. Anything you wish to donate please make sure the things are well labelled.

 

We would really appreciate rolling pins, some small aprons, chef hats, oven mitts, small brown paper bags, small styrofoam containers or small boxes (like a real bakery use) to name a few.

 

The students will decide upon a name for the Bakery, which is always a fun activity and they will have opportunities to make the sign for the bakery. I plan on looking for a small box or two that the children can paint and they will become the ovens.

 

In the Dramatic Play centre they students have opportunities to enhance their oral language skills, reinforce their prior knowledge of what happens in a bakery, and work on their writing skills (creating lists of food to sell) and math skills (setting prices for the items they sell).
