I is for Ice Cream

Forgot to post our favorite week we had last year. I will be posting this year's update soon!
Here's a look at my first year Ice Cream Week!

What a FUN week we have had! 
This has been my favorite unit, yet!!! 
The week began with shaving cream ice cream cones. We talked about mixing colors and what happens. They enjoyed the texture of shaving cream and making a "puffy ice cream cone."

Shaving Cream Ice Cream Cone
1. Triangle Cone glued onto a piece of card stock.
2. Mix shaving cream, paint and glue. 
3. They had the choice of vanilla, chocolate, strawberry or mint. 

Ice Cream Shop - Dramatic Play
What a hit!! They fight over who gets to be in the center. I made 4 different types of play dough ice cream (chocolate, vanilla, mint and strawberry). I added coca to the chocolate play dough, mint extract to the mint and vanilla extract to the vanilla play dough. They loved that it smelt just like ice cream.

Morning Meeting Greeting
Hippity Hop to the Ice Cream Shop

"Hippity hop to the ice cream shop to buy an ice cream soda.
Which ice cream do like (insert students name)?"

This is a hit as well. They love choosing a new favorite flavor of the day.
