Lesson details
Key learning points
- It is important to express yourself clearly and confidently in various social situations.
- It is normal for people to agree and disagree with each other in a variety of social situations.
- We can solve conflicts in groups by agreeing and disagreeing respectfully.
- When we meet new adults, we can make a good first impression by being polite and respectful.
- When we meet new children, we can try to make friends by having conversations.
Keywords
Agree - to share an opinion, belief or viewpoint with someone else
Disagree - to have a different opinion, belief or viewpoint from someone else regarding a particular topic, issue or statement
Conflict - a disagreement between people
Common misconception
Pupils may see conversations as only a way to share their interests with others.
Remind them that conversations are about 'receiving' as well as 'transmitting' and that listening is a big part of what makes good conversation.
You may want to change the scenarios in the lesson to fit with problems within your class.
