You turned 4 last month and have visited the kindergarten before for some transition activities, mom came along with you for these activities. But, that was few months ago and it seems like a long time for you. You are excited but at the same time a little nervous.

When I say Hello you must reply: Hello teacher Sally, okay! Mom can’t come in the classroom so say bye to mom and come in and sit on the second chair. Parents, please stay outside the door, I do not have time in the mornings for any questions, if you have some please write me an email. To start the rules are:

Ø  Not crying in the classroom (crying is for little babies you are already 3 and 4!) 
Ø  Nobody can touch the toys without teacher’s permission. 
Ø  When the teacher is talking, you must be quiet and listening.

I am teacher Bob, how are you today? Is it your mommy a baby, too? No, right. So, she can’t join our class, but do not worry we will have fun with your classmates! Parents let’s all say good bye to the babies and so they can come in and sit on the tables. We will start the class by listening to a welcome song, everyone must stand up and follow me dancing! Now look at the worksheet I provided, there you will see some kids at school take the blue crayon and colour the boys! Then take the pink crayon and colour the girls! Well done everyone.

Children and parents come in the classroom, you can walk around and find a spot where you feel comfortable. Feel free to explore the classroom and ask me questions about the different spaces we have and the toys, too! Now, chose a toy you like and come and join me in a circle on the mat. Hello again my name is John! This is my favourite toy, it is a plastic white Bengal tiger, I like it because tigers are very strong and fast, and I am fast, too. I run every morning before school. who else likes tigers? What do you know about tigers? Can we see tigers in Adelaide? where do they live? Let me listen to you now, who wants to share about the toy you found in our classroom? show mom, dad, your classmates and John your toy and why do you like it!  Ask questions to your peers about their toys!
