Setting Up Estate Agents


Guest

Recommended Posts

Next week we are going to be setting up an estate agents in our role play area. Bit stuck of exciting ideas to do with it!

Any suggestions?

Do you have the use of a digital camera? You could ask children to 'become' estate agents and actually take them outside to 'photograph' some houses that they can then try and sell. This ties in with the KU of using ICT to support their learning.

Do you have a dolls house, small world play house, garage, castle even a tent etc that the children could desribe features of... which you then scribe on a for sale poster. Discussion could include how much it will cost, who may want to buy it etc.

I like that idea Peggy.

 

You could find photos in the paper of houses for sale (or get details from estate agents) and sort them into flats, detached, semi, terraced, bungalow, etc.

Some of the online estate agents let you download house details to print off. Maybe have some sort of simple filing (sorting!) boxes for flats, bungalows, houses.

Maybe some maps to see where their own houses are, old dooor keys to give out or take when 'viewing' houses

Also get the children to build houses from construction - lego, blocks etc. or junk modelling and take digital photos and use to make their own house details.

Wonder if the children could be involved in using measuring equipment to check the size of rooms or the houses in general? Tape measures, rulers, trundle wheels and all the other non standard measures equipment?
