Another idea - (I see over 300 kdg. students each week so I have to use this quite a bit.) When a student tells me that they have heard the story before I tell them that they are so lucky. There a lucky because they get to hear such a good story again. I then tell the students who haven't heard the story before that they are lucky too - because they get to hear such a good story for the first time. After sharing this with classes a few times they really start to pick up on it. Before you know they are telling each other how lucky they are to hear such good stories. It's cute!
