Notes for Parents and Teachers
• I used this story for several students. One student was very shy about meeting new people, and enjoyed computers, so I thought this would be a good way to practice the skill. If your student isn’t shy, you can leave these parts out of the story.
• I also used this story for helping a student practice saying hello to other teachers and students at school.
• When you get to page 13 (“Let’s practice saying hello”), you can either practice saying hello to the pictures of people in this book (you can give them names), or you can practice with real people. My second student enjoyed saying hello to others at school immediately after reading that part of the story.
Sometimes, I might feel shy when saying hello to people. This is okay. My mom, dad, or teacher will stay with me to help me feel
less shy.
After you say hello, the person might say hello to you, or ask you a question like, “What’s your name?” It is okay to
answer the question.
