“Stop!”  It’s a word that is spoken many times all around us in all different situations, and now we are learning how to use that word in Shale Room!   We are all getting to be at the age of learning independence and wanting to use our toys by ourselves.  But with this exploration of sharing comes a little bit of frustration.  We are learning that when we get frustrated by our friend’s actions, it is ok for us to ask them to stop!  We are also learning that we can use our hands to show them to stop!  To say stop, you extend your left hand, palm upward. Sharply bring your open right hand down to your left palm at a right angle.  We are excited to be expanding our vocabulary and putting our new words into practice!
