To complement and extend on our exploration of our “Building our classroom/school community” topic, the Kindergarteners wanted to develop the outside “village” space by adding more sand toys and kitchen cooking items. We decided to have a bake sale to raise money to buy these items. Year one also participated in the sale.
The bake sale was a great success with lots of smiley customers enjoying our delights. All the children helped to count up the money and altogether we raised $230. We look forward now to buying some new items and getting to play with them.
What a wonderful example of how academic learning can be meaningful and fun!
