Lesson Planning

Children share with class teacher the experience of being thanked; they practice saying thank you during the normal school day and begin to think about what and who they are thankful for.

Children will:

• Have opportunity to talk about how being thanked makes them feel.
• Realise the importance of the phrase ‘thank you’; that it is both being polite (good manners) and a feeling of thankfulness or gratitude.
• Have opportunities to say thank you to peers and family members.
