Description
Ms. Lee's Classroom Vignette As children enter Ms. Lee's preschool classroom, she has them choose an area in which to play during the free-time period before circle time. As the first child to arrive, Jasmine chooses to play at the sand table. When Juan is the first to arrive, he typically chooses to play with the blocks; today, he sees Jasmine at the sand table and walks over to join her. As MacKensie and Tyler come in, they also start playing at the sand table. Ms. Lee asks the next child who arrives, Damon, to choose a different area; soon, he is listening to a CD of alphabet songs. Maria joins Damon in using the second set of earphones. Maria sings along with the CD and Damon chimes in as well. In the kitchen area, Michael says that LaDonna should cook dinner because she's the mommy. Riley and LaDonna respond that boys can cook, too--their daddies make them dinner and LaDonna's grandpa cooks breakfast sometimes. Then, Riley and LaDonna pretend to cook while Michael role-plays being their son. In the block area, Sarah greets Naohero, saying, "Hola--Dora the explorer says that means 'Hi." " Naohero says, "Konnichiwa, Sarah. That's how we say "Hi" at home." At the sand table, Jasmine pours sand on the floor. Right as Tyler is about to dump a cupful of sand on the floor, Ms. Lee goes over and has Jasmine leave the sand table and sit in the time-out chair. Tyler then pours the cup of sand in the table. MacKensie and Juan continue to pour the sand in the table. Once all 12 children have arrived, Ms. Lee starts singing the clean-up song. Even though all the preschoolers start singing, only some of them actually start cleaning up. Ms. Lee, in a loud voice, states, "I like how Riley and Michael are cleaning up the kitchen area. I like how Sarah is picking up the blocks. Damon and Maria are sitting nicely on the rug." Soon, all the preschoolers are putting things away and running to sit down for circle time.
