It's been a great day of learning together.
Now let's play a game before we review today's conversations.
It's time for Fill in the...
Blank.
That's right, Fill in the...
Blank.
So what is today's blank, Katie?
Well, I can't tell you the blank yet, Nathan.
But I can give you a sentence with the blank.
And you and our friends need to think of the key word for the blank.
Of course.
OK, I'm ready.
OK, here's the sentence.
Annie's family is very (blank) to her.
Annie's family is very (blank) to her.
They're very "department store" to... No, no.
Oh, it must be "special"!
Annie's family is very special to her.
You are right.
Annie's family is very special to her.
And all of you are special to us.
Now let's review our conversations.
Hey, Ken. Are you going home?
Yes. But first, I'm going to a department store.
I need a gift.
Is the gift for your girlfriend?
No. It's for my mother.
Mother's Day is Sunday.
Oh! That's right.
What are you giving your mother for Mother's Day?
I'm not sure.
My mom is very special.
She needs a special gift.
What does your mom like?
My mom likes books.
She reads a lot.
Then get her a book.
I get a book for her every year.
I want something different for her this year.
Does she like flowers?
Yes. But everyone gives flowers.
I'm looking for something unique.
How about chocolates?
Those aren't unique, either.
And my mom doesn't like sweets.
Do you have a good photo of your family?
Yes. Why?
Find the photo.
Make it large.
Then print it.
Then my mom can hang it on her wall.
Yes! It's something different.
And it is unique!
That's the perfect gift.
Thanks, Joe.
No problem.
Now I need something for my mother!
Happy Mother's Day, Monkey Man.

Yeah, Mother's Day is Sunday.
So happy Mother's Day to you.
Ginger, I'm not a mother.
Oh, yeah.
Well, Monkey Man, why do we have a special day for mothers?
Well Ginger, because mothers are very special.
Oh, yeah, especially my mother.
Well Ginger, what is so special about your mother?
Oh, my mom is beautiful.
She has big ears and a big mouth and hair everywhere.
Oh.
And my mom has a sweet, sweet voice.
Oh, nice.
Yeah, like...
