The presentation begins with questions and discussions designed to help students recognize which qualities, behaviours and attitudes cause us to respect or look up to certain people. The lesson then strives to encourage students to exhibit or develop these characteristics in themselves to acquire greater respect from others and to build stronger feelings of self-respect.
This resource includes a fifteen page Lego themed Building Respect Google Slides discussion and lesson, a two page student activity and a teacher's guide.
The goal of this lesson is to help students understand the importance of courage and to make them aware of the many times they have already shown it in their lives. This resource consists of a 20 slide PowerPoint or Google Slides lesson, which seeks to engage and involve the students though questions and powerful images, and a two-sided worksheet which reviews the concepts presented and discussed.
