Show and Tell My Pet and Me! 소통 및 사회 기술 수업

💫This is a one-time class that can be taken multiple times. Come once, or come often!

Welcome to "Show and Tell My Pet and Me!"—a fun and interactive social skills class designed especially for young children who love their pets (or stuffed animals)! In this class, students will have the opportunity to introduce their furry, feathered, or scaly friends to the group, sharing stories and special facts about their pets. Learners are welcome to bring a stuffed animal and pretend to have a real pet too.

Through this engaging show-and-tell format, children will practice important social skills such as speaking confidently, listening to others, and taking turns. Each session will focus on fostering a supportive and friendly environment where every child feels encouraged to participate and express themselves. Whether your child has a dog, cat, hamster, fish, or any other pet (stuffed animals included), this class is the perfect place to share their excitement and connect with other young animal lovers!

Learning Goals:
✔️ Develop confidence in public speaking.
✔️ Enhance listening skills and respect for others' contributions.
✔️ Practice turn-taking and patience.
✔️ Foster empathy and understanding of different animals.
✔️ Describe the characteristics and needs of living things.

📌Pets do not need to be present for every class; students can share photos, drawings, or stories about their pets if needed. Learners are welcome to bring a stuffed animal and pretend to have a real pet too.
