487 Questions....

Did you know that the average preschooler asks 487 questions a day?  No wonder my ears are tired at the end of the day!

This is a day in the life of our classroom...kind of. 

In our dramatic play center, we have set up a Hot Cocoa Café, which is very popular.  We need workers who take orders, make hot cocoa for customers, adding ingredients to order, customers to buy and take orders out.  The kids are loving this, and I'm trying to think of more ways to add to this area.

 

 

We are also working on a recycling project and friends brought all kinds of recyclables in to share--they were really piling up in spite of the kids' using them to make things every day.  Ms. Maria suggested robots and we were off!

 



 

 

In another center, children were playing with cars in the garage....

 

In the sensory sink, we had some "snow" (not much of that to be found here in Florida!) and arctic animals.

We also made REAL hot chocolate on our first cool day of the year--hard to believe that happened on January 7th!  We measured the ingredients, stirred it all up and cooked it in the crock pot right in our classroom all morning.  We even served it with peppermint marshmallows...

This isn't all that we did in our classroom, but our college students aren't back yet so we don't have our usual photographers for EVERYTHING.  We are pretty lucky that way usually.
