How Do You Do? J. R. Poulter

How does a chicken say, "Hi"? How does a cow say, "Hello"? I know. Do you? A fun, rhyming story introducing the concepts of greetings and good manners, as well as animal sounds to little children. "What a wonderful way for little ones to practise their emerging understanding of animal and sound association, learn the courtesy of greetings, as well as exposing them to the power of rhyme." Adrienne T. O'Connell, B. A., Grad. Dip. Ed., has taught children from indigenous classrooms in the wilds of the Australian outback to multicultural suburban classrooms in a big city. How Do You Do uses animal sounds to explore ideas to do with communication and polite greetings. This will help with your child entering the world of school with many different teachers, teacher-aides, adults and staff. The story is funny, sweet and memorable - the perfect recipe for a meaningful lesson. Review by Louise Lavery, Families Magazine, http://www.familiesmagazine.com.au/books-about-starting-school/
