THANK YOU
Body
I would like to send a great big “thank you” to all my family and friends who came to help me celebrate my ninetieth birthday. Also, I appreciate all of you who sent birthday wishes with cards and flowers. I had a wonderful day visiting with all of you, and having so many of the family together made the day really special. Thank you again, and God’s blessings to you all.
Storytelling with young children
Body
Oral Storytelling encourages deeper participation among preschoolers through role-playing and performances. Preschoolers develop important speaking and listening skills when they express their ideas and respond to the ideas of others. Unlike reading to children, oral storytelling seems to unleash a range of imagination. There are no illustrations to rely on!
