Respect

Treat people how you want them to treat you – understand that others are different and treat them fairly – use good manners to everyone – speak kindly to others – listen to others’ opinions – clean up after yourself – don’t judge others

Working on Respect at Home

  1. Has anyone ever teased you? How did it feel?
  2. If you see someone else getting teased, what can you do help?
  3. Littering is not respectful to other people or the Earth. Why? What can you do with your trash to be respectful?
  4. What are some examples of good manners?
  5. If you see someone that needs to sit down (older, hurt, disabled) and there are no seats left, but you have one, what should you do?
  6. If you don’t agree with someone, do you think it is still important to listen to their opinion?  Why or why not?
