I love Kindergarten!

This is why I love Kindergarten. What started as helping two students put on their dramatic play costumes turned into an entire class ballet project!  The two girls asked for ballet music to practice.  I put on the Nutcracker music.  Two other students thought that they should set up chairs.  They put all the stuffed animals on the chairs to watch.  A few other students thought it would be fun to be in the audience.  Then all of a sudden there were Kindergartners making tickets, serving food to the audience, collecting tickets, making the ticket box and a decision that we should make gingerbread men out of play dough to serve to our pretend audience.  We didn't get all of the elements together to have a our ballet show today.  They would like to continue this play during centre time tomorrow.  They only have a few requests for me.  They wanted to know if I could go buy them ballet shoes, some more skirts, make a stage and find more ballet music. What a great morning!
