Introduction:

Hello, champions! Today, we’re delving into the wonderful world of “Showing Respect.” It’s a superpower that makes the world a better place. Get ready to discover how small acts of respect can create big smiles!

Part 1: What is Respect?
Defining Respect: Begin by discussing the meaning of respect in a simple way. Explain that respect is treating others the way you want to be treated. It’s like giving a little bit of kindness to everyone you meet.

Examples of Respect: Share examples of respectful behaviors, such as using polite words, listening when someone is speaking, and taking turns. Ask students to share times when they felt respected or showed respect to others.

Part 2: Ways to Show Respect
Listening Ears: Teach the importance of active listening. Create a fun activity where students practice being good listeners. Use a “talking stick” to pass around, allowing the person holding it to share while others listen attentively.

Magic Words: Introduce magic words like “please,” “thank you,” and “excuse me.” Discuss when and how to use these words to show respect. Encourage students to practice using magic words in various scenarios.

Respecting Differences: Celebrate diversity by discussing how everyone is unique. Emphasize that respecting others includes appreciating differences. Engage in activities that highlight diverse cultures, languages, and traditions.
