While the teacher was clearing the supplies from the table she asked the class, "Who wants to help me make smoothies?" The children replied, "Not me, not me." One child came to the table and said, "I'm going to wash my hands." She came to the table and four other children followed. Each child took turns scooping the frozen fruit in the bag or braking the bananas in half. A child said, "It's going to be super fun." Then the teacher asked him, "Is it going to be super fun or super delicious?" Another child said, "I eat yogurt at home." The teacher replied, "You eat yogurt at home too?" She said, "Yes." The teacher said, "I'm making one more with out dairy." A child asked, "What is dairy?" Then the teacher asked, "What is the dairy product?" Adifferent child at the table said, "Banana." "No it's not banana," the teacher said.So a child said, "Yogurt." "It's yogurt," the teacher said. While looking at the blender mix the ingredients they added a child said, "It's red." The teacher said, "It's really red." After they were done making the smoothies the children at it for snack.

During this activity the developmental skills the children used were math, science, turn taking, cognitive skills, following directions, large and small motor skills, and vocabulary/communication skills.

To further the development or interest with the children as the teacher I would plan a list to write to help children remember the activity. We would re-write the process as the children help me while I write what they say. I would also allow the children to draw what they remember the smoothie looked like to emerge literacy to art creativity.
