"Lily do you want to build with me?"

Often Ben invites his friends and classmates to play.  When he finishes his lunch Ben puts his trash in the garbage, his lunchbox in his backpack and then he will ask a friend/ classmate to play with him. "Samantha do you want to play with the magnitiles when you are done with lunch?"  Inviting someone to play is not as easy as it looks.  Every time Ben invites someone to play he looks them in the eyes and asks him/her if they want to play.  This is a social skill that takes time and practice to master.  Ben gets a lot of practice as he is so warm and friendly to all the children in the Adamah classroom!

Today Ben walked right up to Lily and said, "Lily do you want to play with the magnitiles?  We can build a house?"  Lily loved the idea ,walked over to the rug with Ben and started to build.
