10. You get fed up and cross......and just stop trying....

11. ...so they let you come home. Home

12. Talking, listening and understanding is important for learning and making friends.

13. It starts when we are babies... Gurgle

14. ...by age 4 or 5 we can do it pretty well... Once upon a time...

15. ..and we are learning new words all the time. WOW!

16. Scientists and clever people say talking and listening are really important to help us learn. Talking and listening are really important to help us learn That’s right

17. And although writing is important...

18. ..today, we are going to hide our pens and pencils and learn just by talking and listening.

19. We will learn just as much with different activities. Podcasting Interviewing each other Role play Maths games Word wall

20. Your job is to decide which activities and lessons work best... 1st

21. ..and whether there were times you missed your pens and pencils.
