Thank you collage

Routines: calendar, hi and bye activity

When we were practicing saying hi and bye today, Cooper had to leave early, and the kids all turned around to wave to his mom and said bye! I was so impressed by how they're learning their manners! They said it with soooo much enthusiasm too!

We did some role playing again today with the "Bad Manners" book~ Some of the situations that we acted out are how to drink soup, what to do if somebody falls down and cries, what we have to say after we sneeze, etc. The kids found it very funny. =P

We talked about situations when we have to say please and thank you. Then I taught them how to say thank you in different languages, including French, Chinese, Indian, Russian, Spanish, and Japanese. They repeated the pronunciation after me, and they seemed to be excited in speaking in foreign languages! Then I asked them to go to the table and gave them some pencil crayons. They had to colour the different shapes containing the thank you words, then cut the shapes out, and glue them onto the construction paper to make a collage. After they're done with gluing the words, I gave them some stars to decorate their page. =)
