Dramatic Play Centre - Pizza Store

The students decided to turn the drama centre into a pizza store. We brainstormed ideas for our new centre. The students created a sign for the store, a lunch and dessert menu, price list, and a list of toppings and sides.












Ball Python





The children had an opportunity to visit with and pet a ball python. The next day one of the students found a photo of a ball python in a shape book at our reading centre. She excitedly made a connection to the pet snake. Making text to self connections is an important part of our reading program!

Students were shape detectives today and looked around the room for objects shaped like rectangles. Some of the things they found included a lunchbox, table, eraser, tissue box, number chart, box, clipboard, mat, flag, door, and window.
