2. Greeting the principal and support staff (lunch person, music teacher, speech therapist, etc.)
3. Greet classmates and teachers in own classroom.
4. Video appropriate way to get attention and ask a question (raise hand, look at teacher, ask question, respond using appropriate volume).
5. Video appropriate way to handle disappointment in different situations (ex: can't play outside due to rain, are not chosen to be first, cannot be the line leader, did not get to pick what game is being played).

Allow students to watch the video during free choice time to reinforce skills.
