Prerequisite skills: basic conversation skills (statement/statement, statement/question); calendar (or a basic understanding of what events happen when)

When we listen to kids on the playground, they are constantly talking about events in their life – what they did, what they are going to do, who is coming over, where they are going, etc.

This program is designed to teach our students to start initiating using some that verbal behaviour heard by their peers on the playground.
