Respecting Different Views

What are we learning today?

You will talk politely about other schools and ways of life. You will respect different opinions.

Explanation

• People live and learn in different ways.
• A different way is not wrong. It is only different.
• Compare politely: Tobilay walks to school, but I go by bus.
• Listen to the other person and do not interrupt.
• Ask for a reason in a kind way: Why not?

Examples

1. In Wales they speak Welsh, but in my school we speak Kazakh.
2. That's interesting. I understand.
3. I'm afraid you can't. Why not?

Remember!

• Never say that another school is wrong.
• Listen to the reason.
