Ask children to choose a different person each day to welcome so they do not always pick the same people. As the class becomes familiar with this activity, the time taken to complete it should decrease. State the learning intention: Today we are going to begin a program called Everyone, Everyday. We will be learning about what we can do every day to make sure everyone around us feels included in our daily activities, like playing, being with friends, and participating in activities at school or after school.Firstly, we are going to talk about our feelings, and explore how we feel when we are included, and how we feel when we are left out. We will begin by reading a book together and will look for the different feelings the characters show us in the story.
