You will find ideas for this creative
drama corner in my "Animals" booklet,
located in the "Stormie's Stuff for Teachers"
section of my website. I will share more ideas here if/when I can create
new ones.
I
am so grateful to Kimerly Gaines for kicking off this section of my website
with this fabulous idea:
Down On the Farm: I
bought a grass carpet (the cheapest grade) for the floor, then had the class paint
big boxes to resemble the barn and silo. In two large tubs (water table
size), I placed grass seed in one and dirt in the other. Props included
fake veggies, plastic flowers, and gardening tools all from my local dollar store.
Dress up clothes included overalls, bandannas, boots, etc. but I still kept
pots and pans and miscellaneous items in the kitchen to pretend to prepare and
eat what we had grown. I painted a "down on the farm" mural (from
the children's favorite storybook) on large paper for a wall background. -----------------
