As we mentioned previously, some students were showing an interest in creating a restaurant during learning centre time. We were so excited to see it come to fruition and we wanted to share an example with you :)
On Tuesday during learning centres, Lilly came up to me and asked me if I would help her plan out her restaurant (I love when students ask for help!!). We sat down together at the creative table and discussed what kind of restaurant she wanted to build. She decided that she wanted to make a pizza shop. So we grabbed some construction paper and started planning the inside and outside of the shop. We talked about how we needed room in the shop for an oven as well as tables and chairs for customers to sit.
Once our plan was done, she made a sign for her restaurant, and this is when other students wanted to help out. Lily saw what she was doing and started making some menus for the restaurant! "There are different kids of pizza"! Next, we headed over to the blocks centre and hung up our plan. Some more of our friends joined our "construction team" and helped us begin the framework for our shop. We had to make sure that there was a door for people to get in and out and room in the shop for an oven. From here, students were using the toy nail guns, screw drivers, levels, etc. to build the shop, and with lots of hard work, we had our very own pizza shop :)
We were so glad we were able to capture this learning taking place. Great job boys and girls! We look forward to seeing more construction take place in room 110 :)
Have a great night!
