Remember that show on which Bill Cosby interviewed children to see how hilariously they responded to his questions? He should have observed a preschool storytime!
One of the first things I do during preschool storytime is ask the children to guess what we are reading about that day. I always provide them with some clues to help their guessing, most often a poster featuring the letter the topic starts with and pictures of the topic.
On one occasion, the responses went something like this:
Girl: I know! I know! I already know what we we're going to read about! I knew before you asked even!
Boy: Well, I already know what we're going to read about too! {Pause for thought.} I knew in the van on the way here!
Poor girl, how could she top that!?
