We started our snack table last year and it's fabulous! I have a larger table that holds 8 children at a time. It worked well up until this year when my class grew to 27 children (we started the FDK program). I find that at times it is empty, other times everyone wants to sit. And towards the end of the morning/afternoon, when we clean up everything including the snack table, all the children want to go! Any suggestions since you have been doing FDK for a few years now? I'm trying to remind children to go throughout the day so the overcrowding stops.
Joanne invites you to explore her Reggio Emilia inspired creative studio and learning centre for children (birth to 12 years old), parents and educators. Follow along her journey as a kindergarten teacher, early years consultant, PhD student, and mama of two to discover how she continues to evolve and transform her learning environment into a space of possibilities!
It looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThank you! The children are really enjoying it! :)
ReplyDeleteWhere is the carpet from? Scholastic as well?
ReplyDeleteIt is from Wal-mart. I love the colour and texture of it!
