Hello Neighbor

Every morning (even on delayed start days) we begin our day with morning meeting. The first component of this meeting is greeting and saying hello to each of our friends.  Every child and every adult, each morning, is greeted and welcomed into our class community.  To make this exciting and fun for the children, a variety of greetings are used. From handshakes and highfives, to shoe and firecracker, to throwing 'snowballs' and making tracks, we try and incorporate something appropriate to the weather, theme, holiday, etc into our greeting.  INQUIRE with your child what their favorite greeting is? Can they name at least 20 different greetings? How about more?
