We have been writing essays on what respect means to us. Here is Brody’s:
Respect is a very important thing. It shows that you care for others. Respect is important to me and many others, and you can show respect daily. It can be helping someone up or holding the door for people. It can be easy as saying please and thank you! Anti bullying week is very important, and it is from 10th November – 17th November.
Respect matters. The reason is that people will feel happy and pleased that you have treated them in the right way and might help you bond with one another and help you make more friends. When you show respect, you will be respected back. Respect always stops bullying when you stand up for one another. As proud as an owl. That’s what you will feel if you show respect to one another.
Disrespect is a very serious thing and should not be used in any situation even though it can be used. It could be violence like punching or kicking, or making fun of people for their appearance or accent etc. Bullying is serious and respect is very kind and humble.
I pledge to not Disrespect or bully anyone because that would be mean and disrespectful.
