Making a Friend at School

My name is {{childName}}, and this is my story about making a friend at school. Friends are people who like to spend time together. Having a friend can make school feel happier. I can make a friend one small step at a time.

I can start by smiling and saying hello to someone. I can learn their name and use it next time I see them. Small friendly moments like this happen every day at school. Each one helps people get to know me.

I can ask someone to play, share a toy, or sit together at lunch. We can look for something we both like to do. Finding things we both enjoy helps a friendship grow. Many friendships start with playing together.

A friendship grows a little each day. Some days are easier than others, and that is normal. I can keep being kind and friendly. Being a good friend is something I am learning, and I am doing well.
