14/01/2019- British Values: Showing self and mutual respect

As part of our ‘British Values’ topic, this week we have been looking at how we can show mutual and self-respect to each other.

We came up with some rules for how to show mutual respect. They were:

• Be polite 
• Give encouragement e.g. “You can do it!”
• Listen when other people speak
• Be mindful of the feelings and opinions of others
• Be helpful
• Speak to others in kind manner
• Don’t insult or make fun of others

Following this, we explored rules for showing ourselves respect. They were:

• Be honest with yourself (and others)
• Take pride in your appearance
• Be responsible
• Work hard
• Take care of your body
• Increase your knowledge
• Believe in yourself

Some fantastic rules that we should all live by! To bring the lesson to a positive close, we completed ‘Positivity Passage’. Each pupil completed a walk through a passage of their classmates as they all said positive things about them.  This was a fantastic display of mutual respect from all of our Year 4 pupils!
