It is great to be with friends. Let us read a poem about good

friends who love to play and be together. Recite the poem in
groups with the help of the teacher.

Friends smile at you.
They love you a lot.

They also like to be with you,

Whether you make mistakes or not.

Friends have fun with you.

Friends share with you.

They’re glad you’re fit,
healthy, happy,

When you feel sad, they care.

If you’re a good friend

Then you care, too.

That’s why your friends

Are glad you’re you.

I’ll always remember,

The smile of my friend!
