Earning Pennies for Market

The Yellow Pod will be having a market May.  We will be making rainforest items to sell to other classes.  The children will also have a chance to go to the other classes to buy items that they have made.  After Spring Break, the children will have an opportunity to earn pennies for the market.  We have been learning about banks and money.  We read Benny’s Penny’s and Ben’s Saving’s Account.  We brainstormed ways that the children can earn money at school.  We also brainstormed some fines.  The children have to give me pennies if they get a fine.  We are currently working on a bank in our room. 





Walk About Puppets

Bob Parsons, of Walk About Puppets, came to AEEC. He performed Goldilocks and the Three Bears for our children. They absolutely loved his performance! Mr. Parsons shared with the children how he makes his puppets and his sets after the show was over.
