This week we have been learning about High 5 steps that we can use in and out of school with other boys and girls.
These 5 steps help us be kind to others and it helps us stay safe.

1. Ignore:
If somebody is being nasty to you, you don’t look at them and pretend you don’t hear them.

2. Speak friendly:
Tell the person nicely that they are hurting your feelings and maybe ask questions as to why they are acting this way.

3. Walk away:
If Step 1 and 2 still do not help, you can walk away from the person with your head held high. Don’t look back.

4. Speak firmly:
Ask them to STOP. Tell them you will tell an adult next if they do not stop acting unkindly.

5. Report:
Tell a teacher, a PSW, an adult or your buddy if you are still not happy.

We coloured in pictures of helping hands with a list of 5 people we can go to if we are feeling unhappy with the way somebody is acting towards us. Next week we are going to put in order these steps so we can remember what to do.

High 5 and stay safe! 🙂
