　　Play games:

　　1.Have children stand in a circle . Put on your mask of Mocky and say, I鈥檓 a monkey.鈥� Have the children choose a Character Mask to put on.

　　2.Throw the ball to a child who is not wearing a monkey mask . He/she stand up and says. 鈥淚鈥檓 a (boy).鈥� Children continue throwing, catching and producing the new structure and vocabulary. The only rule is that children cannot throw the ball to someone who will repeat exactly what they said.

　　Teaching steps:

　　1. Introduce please and thank you. Mime a little sketch to convey the meaning of each word. For example , pick up and carry a pile of books toward the classroom door with both hands . Signal to one of the children that you want him or her to open the door for you and say, 鈥減lease.鈥� When the child opens the door for you, look relieved and say to him or her, 鈥淭hank you.鈥� Once you have checked that the children have understood the new vocabulary, model the words by repeating them two or three times and have children repeat after you in a choral drill.

　　2. Games: The box can only be passed along if the next person in the line says , 鈥減lease鈥� and 鈥渢hank you鈥�. Hold the box and have the child at the front of the line say, 鈥渢hank you.鈥� Continue until the box reaches the end of the line.

　　Sing the song:

　　1. Explain to children that they are going to learn a song using please and Thank you.

　　2. Read the words to the children, pointing to each word.

　　3. Play the tape for the whole song and have children listen and repond physically to the commands.

　　4. Play the tape again and have children join in while they follow.

　　Action:

　　1. Have children take turns to do things for each other through mime and say, 鈥減lease鈥� and 鈥渢hank you鈥�. They might: open the door/window, pass a pencil, lend and eraser, tie a shoelace, and so on.

　　2. Mime an example for children to watch before having them work in pairs: indicate to a child to pass you a book and say, 鈥減lease.鈥� When you have the book, say 鈥渢hank you.鈥�
