Implementation
Meet with children in the morning circle and begin it as usual. After questions about the day of the week, the month etc. ask them about who of them would like to be the table service on that day.
Ask them, what do they have to know, when it’s going about the meal of the day; the possible answers would be: today we are going to eat soup so we need bowls and spoons. But before they prepare the tables, they have to know how many bowls and spoons they need. To know get information about it, they have to know the number of the children in the group on that day.
Preparation
No special preparations needed.
Variation
This could be a fix part of you morning circle routine.
Reflection
Children learn to plan activities by first gathering specific information and then carrying out the action based on the data. In our case, we first need to know what the main meal is that day, what kind of dishes we need and how many children are in kindergarten that day.
