Read The Little Engine that Could by Watty Piper during large group.  Show a toy train engine as a prop as you read


the story. After reading the story, have one child stand up, hold the train and say something he/she


is proud that he/she can do. Continue around the circle. Once everyone is standing, move around the


room like a long train saying, “I think I can, I think I can,” just like the little engine that could.
