How to Get Along with Others

December 11, 2014

In recent Personal Growth classes, we brain-stormed and watched Brainpop videos on how to make friends, how to get along well with each other and what to do if we are being bullied. The 1st graders now understand that we can make friends by inviting people to do things and making them feel like they belong. We can make friends by teaching or learning how to do something. We can make friends when we play games and have fun together. To be a good friend, we should treat everyone with respect, share and take turns. It is important to be polite and give compliments. The golden rule is to treat others as you would like to be treated. Bullying happens when a person says or does hurtful things over and over again. We should tell an adult if we are being mistreated. If we act respectfully, we can avoid being a bully too.
