2 student Friends, here you go just in case

Poems about a schoolboy alone His name is... but by the way, We better not name him here.

We will tell you “thank you.” Game (conducted by teacher): - Now let's play a game. I will read the story, and when necessary, insert polite words into my story (in unison).
“One day, Vova Kryuchkov went by bus. On the bus, he sat by the window and looked at the streets with pleasure. Suddenly a woman with a child entered the bus. Vova stood up and told her: “Sit down... (in unison, please). The woman was very polite and thanked Vova: ... (thank you). Suddenly the bus stopped unexpectedly. Vova almost fell and pushed the man hard. The man wanted to get angry, but Vova quickly said: ..... (sorry, please). - Well, you know polite words. Feel free to use them more often. 4 student One day people came up with the idea of ​​celebrating a holiday on January 11 “World Thank You Day.” 5 student In ancient times, our ancestors, when speaking words of gratitude, used only the verb “to thank”: they said: “Thank you!”, “Thank you!”. 4 student This is how it was at the time when paganism dominated our land. When Christianity came, the word “thank you” was replaced with “thank you.” 5 student The origin of this Russian word is beautiful and sublime!
It was born in the 16th century from the phrase "God bless." Our ancestors put much more into these two words than just gratitude. It is very reminiscent of a wish - a wish for salvation, turning to God, His merciful and saving power. Subsequently, the expression was transformed and shortened. And a word familiar to all of us from childhood was born "Thank you".6 student New York is considered the most polite and largest city in the world - “thank you” is most often said here. Moscow took 30th place in the politeness rating among 42 “big” cities. 7 student A grateful person is attentive and open to people, he notices any service done for him. He is ready to repay the same coin of kindness and responsiveness that he received from others. 8 student We are all well aware of the importance of good manners, their necessity in everyday life, but we express most of our thanks, as if by chance, without thinking about their meaning. However, words of gratitude have magical properties - with their help, people give joy to each other, express attention and convey positive emotions - something without which our life would become boring and gloomy. 6 student
How does it happen that one person is grateful and another is not? Why does this depend? From the mind, heart, education?

Song about kindness
7 student Gratitude can be expressed with a look, a smile and a gesture, which is called “gratitude without words.” A gift, which is so important during the holidays, also sometimes serves as a worthy way to give thanks. But most often we say this simple word with such great meaning - “thank you.”

Many words carry a special meaning. Words of gratitude are pleasant in every sense, but swear words are negative. If you think about it, you can understand that a spoken word can sometimes bring more benefit or harm than any action. In our fast pace of life, we don’t always have time to thank our loved ones for something. Time passes and everything is forgotten. You need to stop and think, maybe say the right words now? Words of gratitude can bring great satisfaction to a person and it is simply necessary to make such gestures sometimes.

January 11th is International THANK YOU Day. In our school, within the framework of the methodological theme of the school“The influence of the conditions for organizing the educational process on the formation of a tolerant sociocultural environment during the transition to the second generation Federal State Educational Standard” The “Say Thank You!” campaign is taking place. (After holidays). This is a Challenge for those who want to live and study interestingly.

"Thank You" Day Outside!
International day!
Join the game
This incomparable one!

We say “Thank you!” everyone,
We do it nicely.
Thank you - no problem
It's going to be a fun day!

How to say thank you correctly?

From early childhood we know how to pronounce this word; our parents, educators and teachers teach us this. If a person does not learn this word, then he is considered ignorant and illiterate. Saying thank you is not only a sign of good manners, but also something important. The word has many meanings, and it can be pronounced in different situations, in different ways.

The usual meaning of the word is gratitude, a way of showing gratitude and showing favor to others. So to speak, this is a kind of amulet that wards off all evil from its owner. The boomerang principle underlies the entire action of the word. There is a situation that many have encountered: your ill-wisher speaks negative words about you, and usually the reaction is not long in coming. You are also rude to him, and in reality a quarrel ensues. The quarrel itself is the main source of negative emotions, and it has never brought any benefit. The most correct thing would be to say the word thank you in response to him, while the defense mechanism is automatically activated and all the negativity directed at you returns to the person who wished it. There are also situations in which hearing the word thank you becomes emotionally uncomfortable. Some express gratitude, so to speak, in sarcasm. In this case, the word is pronounced with different shades, from pronounced irony to unpleasant. If you take all the negativity on yourself, it won’t make it any easier for anyone. There are also cases of pronouncing the word thank you with tears in your eyes, in this situation it becomes clear that these are clearly not words of gratitude. When pronouncing the word thank you, you need to put your whole soul into it, because you sincerely wish the person the protection of higher powers: “Thank you, then may good luck and prosperity be with you.”

The students of our school gave an interview in which they sincerely expressed their “Thank you!”

Danil Vashchenko ,11 years old: “Thank you - this is such gratitude. Thanks to everyone who helps us. Santa Claus - for a box of chocolates. I want to tell the teacher and everyone who feeds us. And I want to say my deepest gratitude to my mother, she helps me most often.”

Anastasia , 13 years old: “I want to say thank you to my teacher Rimma Viktorovna for doing everything for me: holding events, teaching classes. “Thank you to my friend for helping me with my studies, being friends and doing good deeds for me.”

Kolya , 8 years old: “Everyone I have is very different and everyone is good, I will thank them. I want to thank the teacher for everything.”

Georgy Vashchenko , 11 years old: “Thank you to Santa Claus for listening to my poem. To the teacher for the fact that I study and work.”

Nailya , 14 years old: “I want to thank you (psychologist) for your help. My friend for gifts and candy. Teacher (Melnikova R.V.) for hugging us.”

How is the holiday celebrated? This event is widely celebrated in many cities. There are fairs, competitions and many entertainment events. Young people hold street actions dedicated to this holiday and gather a lot of people ready to take part in it. The most polite date is celebrated on a grand scale and many celebrate this holiday with great pleasure.

How many times a day do we say thank you, what does it mean to each of us? World-renowned psychologist Virginia Satir wrote: We need four hugs a day to survive. We need eight hugs a day for support. We need twelve hugs a day to grow.”

PROMOTION: “Say “Thank you!” in our school! Who will say the word “Thank you” the most times? in one school day? Prize in the psychologist's office. Let us know who accepts the CALL. The whole class can take part in the action, or maybe someone individually will be the most grateful.

Say this wonderful word more often, and say it from your heart.
Believe me, everything comes back; someone will definitely say THANK YOU!

The information was prepared by educational psychologist Olga Mikhailovna Kaiser

We offer one of the possible options for holding a children's party on World Thank You Day? which is celebrated on January 11, 2019.

Celebration scenario for World Thank You Day in kindergarten

Presenters can start it with the following words:

- Hello guys! Today, January 11, we celebrate a wonderful international holiday - Thank You Day.

– Gratitude is one of the best feelings that people experience. We thank each other every day, on big and small occasions.

– World Thank You Day
Today we celebrate
And we say: “Thank you!”
To everyone who surrounds us.

– May this day be a “thank you”
We will tell everyone for everything.
It's nice to be polite
And everyone knows this!

Then the presenters will address the children:
– Scientists believe that the Russian word “thank you” comes from the words “God bless,” which was said as a sign of gratitude. What other good words do you know?

Even a block of ice will melt from a warm word... (thank you).

Even a tree stump will turn green when it hears... (good afternoon).

When we are scolded for pranks, we say... (forgive me please)

We will say goodbye to our acquaintances... (goodbye).

The presenters continue the celebration:
– And how many sayings and proverbs have been said about kind words:

  • A kind word reaches the heart.
  • An affectionate word like a spring day.
  • A kind word also pleases the cat.
  • Politeness costs nothing but brings a lot.
  • Arrogance is feared, but politeness is respected.

The celebration of World Thank You Day in kindergarten can be continued with short scenes, such as the following.

The presenters begin the skit:
– Guys, where does “thank you” come from?
It is not sold in the store,
It is not said by order,
And many never got it.

- And Misha went outside today
And I immediately heard three words “thank you”.

Scenes are played out in which the boy Misha, at the request of his mother, went to the store to buy bread, took an old woman across the street, and opened the door to a woman with a small child.

– As you can see, being kind and attentive is not at all difficult and very pleasant, because people will be grateful to you for it. Always help your dad and mom, grandparents, friends and those who need your help.

- Say thank you
It's so simple.
Lend me a piece of goodness,
It's not difficult at all.

- Say thank you, don’t be silent.
After all, these are the keys to the heart.
Say thank you, don’t be rude -
And the whole world will become kinder.

At the end of the children's holiday on World Thank You Day, according to the script, the presenters will take the floor again:

– Words of gratitude and recognition spoken from the heart warm us with their warmth. A short word “thank you” can give us a good mood even on a gloomy day.

– Don’t forget to thank everyone you meet today. And remember: “thank you” is a firefly word. You say it, and your soul becomes lighter and warmer. Tell it to people as often as possible!

One of the most polite days of the year falls on January 11, when the whole world celebrates the holiday of the magic word "Thank you" . The initiators of the approval of the holiday were UNESCO and the UN. The purpose of the event is to remind the inhabitants of the planet about the high value of politeness, good manners and the ability to thank others for their good deeds.

WordThank you According to psychologists, it really is magical. Hearing it, a person experiences emotions similar to those that arise in children when they are affectionately stroked on the head. Having received verbal gratitude, a person subconsciously tunes in to the positive.


Can you imagine how much positivity there is, for example, among waiters or salespeople? After all, they hear “thank you” a hundred times a day. Fortunately, in our country people have become a little more polite and have learned to say thank you not only for selfless help, but also for the paid service. However, additional lessons in politeness will never hurt anyone. Therefore, January 11th must be celebrated "World Thank You Day" or "International Thank You Day" .

Don't be silent like fish
Say “thank you” to everyone!
“Thank you” day, without a doubt
As important as a birthday!

Because the holiday of words
This is not so harsh,
Like any ordinary day.
Driving away the shadow from the sun,

This holiday has come to the house,
And now it’s difficult to leave!
Always be polite -
He will stay then!

January 11th - the most “polite” date in the year. This day marks World Thank You Day (not to be confused with American Thanksgiving, which is celebrated in the United States on the fourth Sunday in November).
Everyone knows from childhood that “thank you” is a “magical” word. Together with the words “please”, “give” and “mom” we say it first and continue to say it throughout our lives. The word “thank you” is an established abbreviation of the phrase “God bless” - this phrase was used to express gratitude in Rus'. The word “thank you” was first recorded in 1586, in a phrasebook published in Paris.
We are well aware of the importance of good manners, their necessity in everyday life, but we express most of our thanks casually, without thinking about their meaning. Meanwhile, the words of gratitude “thank you” and even “please” have magical properties, but they cannot be uttered when a person is irritated. Some might say, "Well, thank you!" and so on, but no! This is not possible, this is not an etiquette rule! Psychologists believe that words of gratitude are signs of attention; they are verbal “strokes” and can warm you with their warmth.
We say “thank you” to each other every day, so it is very important to remember that true gratitude is only that which comes only from a pure heart!
Thank today everyone who is close to you, everyone you love and appreciate. And remember: “thank you” is a firefly word, so warm up the people close to you today!

Worldwide thanks

In the USA, this holiday is celebrated for a whole month - National Thank You Month! But the main event takes place on January 11 - National Thank You Day. Festivals are held in all major cities, and bustling fairs are held in the farming states. Thousands of people attend large concerts and local talent competitions! Everyone ends the performance with a short monologue, noting who and for what they say “thank you” today.
In the body of an adult who hears a sincere “thank you,” the same processes occur as in the body of a child when a loving mother strokes his head. At least that's what psychologists say.
International Thank You Day is celebrated on a grand scale in Europe as well.

This holiday has not yet acquired any special traditions, other than a general expression of gratitude. People simply gather for a festival, concert or charity dinner organized by the city authorities. Young guys hold flash mobs and relay races. For example, they line up in a long line and pass each other a huge plush heart with the words “Thank you for...”. Or they play “tag” with passersby, in a random chain expressing gratitude to each other simply like this: “For a beautiful smile,” “For a positive mood,” etc.
Grateful Russia

If you believe the statistics, Russians say "Thank you" more often than Europeans. But for many, this is just a formality - a polite word spoken automatically. We also don’t value gratitude too much, so Thank You Day in Russia has two sides. It’s not so bad when a forgetful person silently accepts a favor or help. But when they respond to gratitude with something like, “You can’t put a thank you in your pocket and you can’t spread it on bread,” “You won’t be full with a thank you alone,” the magic word instantly depreciates and loses its deep meaning. In the USA there is also a similar saying: “Better a small cent than a big thank you.” Psychologists recommend expressing gratitude only sincerely. But this does not mean that you can remain silent when you think that the service is not worth the polite shuffle. The point is to learn to appreciate even the smallest support and to be happy about even a little help. Of course, you need to say “thank you” not only on holidays. But the date is so convenient! For many people, the New Year holidays and holidays continue, friends meet almost every day, the refrigerator is bursting with goodies! Why not celebrate January 11th in a special, interesting and fun way? Or at least remind loved ones about a holiday that receives offensively little attention in Russia. For example, send out e-cards to everyone (or give real ones in person?) with the word “thank you” in different languages ​​of the world. By the way, on Thank You Day, congratulations should not just be politeness, but real gratitude for specific help. Even the winter sun can shout “Thank you!” for the bright warm rays, and you probably have a lot to thank your friends and relatives for.

1 student Psychologists have found that words of gratitude have a positive effect on a person, on his emotional state and mental activity. And the word “thank you” is the most grateful of all grateful words!
