I set up a school for dramatic play last week. I chose to do this kind of dramatic play early on in the school year because for all of my students this has been a new experience to them and has been the biggest new change in their life. Now they can take on the roll of teacher. Our school in the dramatic play was more like a n elementary school - with desks and flash cards - all of my kids have older siblings - so they knew just how to fit into the rolls in this type of classroom. I plan on doing this station again later on in the year when they are more familiar with the school process. I am very interested to see their new level of play.
After a little bit of help in conflict resolution they all were very good about taking turns being the teacher and being the student.
