3rd- What to look for in a friend and how to make/keep friends. We pretended it was their birthday and they could pick between two gifts I brought for them. We brainstormed what we knew about the two gifts by looking then picked one before opening it. We talked about how you can't tell who will be a good friend by looking. Discussed how to get to know people and how to choose a good friend for us.
4th- Point of View. It is important to see things from others' point of view to peacefully solve problems and work together successfully. Talked about how to see things from another perspective and practiced with a classroom scenario.
5th- Reviewed decision making. Talked about times we have to make decisions with others. What makes that hard? What are some strategies for making decisions in a pair or group? How do you choose group members to work with successfully? Practiced making decisions in groups.
