will affect the reaction of the people they are trying to reach out
to. Teaching young people how to communicate effectively helps

excel in school, and eventually get and keep jobs.

Procedures
The teacher will start the lesson by reviewing what they learned
the previous day.
Yesterday we learned that good citizens are everyday
people that help in their community and they do so in
many different ways. They help by following the rules,
helping the elderly cross the street, picking up trash,
getting to school on time

Then the teacher will explain students that today they are going to
learn about how their choices affect the way they are seen.
The choices we make, has an effect on how people sees us
and respond to us. If we are not communicating in a nice
way, we will probably not receive a good response. That
is why it is important for us to think what we are going to
do before doing so. Sometimes things as simple as
listening to other, made them change their opinions about
us.

We do:
The teacher will read the book Wigglebottom Learns to Listen.
explain how being a good listener is a form of communication.
As the teacher reads few pages, the teacher will ask students to
turn and talk to their shoulder partner about any questions they
might have about what has already been read. Then they will
share it with the class. Teacher will be monitoring students
responses.

The teacher will retell the story reminding them how

Wigglebottom was always in trouble because he didnt
know how to listen. Then after he made the decision to
listen, he stopped getting in trouble, his life was much
better and everyone liked him.

Now the teacher will ask them how Wigglebottom choices

changed the way other people looked at him. Students will turn
and talk to their partners. Then they will share it with the class.

The whole class will play the games Webonauts in their laptops
about an astronaut that goes to an academy to learn about
observation, respect, and contribution. While playing the game,
students will be presented with situations in which they need to
pick the best way to solve the conflict.
You do: Students will cut, color and paste certificates in their
journal. This activity will also work with ESOL, ESE as well as
with Gifted
