Welcome to the Magic of Words!

Introduce the concept of visual storytelling. Explain to students that pictures can show how kind words make us feel happy and safe. Ask if anyone has seen a picture that made them feel good.

Happy Moments with Kind Words

Show a colorful slide with images of happy children, smiling faces, and cheerful weather. Ask the class: 'What do you see? How do these pictures make you feel?'

Friends and Kindness

Display a picture of a group of friends sharing and helping each other. Encourage students to describe what is happening in the picture and relate it to their experiences.
