### In the lessons

Everyday life and safety: in cold or snowy weather children are told to dress warmly — layers, hat, gloves and scarf — to avoid getting too cold. In stories and manners, «greeted warmly» or «welcomed warmly» shows kindness; teachers praise pupils who welcome new classmates warmly. Phrases: dress warmly, wrap up warmly, smile warmly, welcome warmly, thank warmly.
