introductions!

Sit in a circle. The child with
the ball says, âHi! My name is
(Shelly).â As she says her
name she hits the ball for
each syllable so she hits the
ball twice. Then the class, in
unison, says, âHi Shelly! Nice
to meet you.â The child rolls
the ball to a peer and the
activity repeats.
