12. How to be CONSIDERATE Develop Empathy for others
Put yourself in other people’s shoes
Q: How do they feel?
Q: What would make them feel better?
(e.g. We should be punctual because it shows people we respect their time).

13. How to be CONSIDERATE Develop your Empathy for others
Some people have different lives, pressures and backgrounds
(e.g. Some people do not have as much money as other people).
You need to be considerate of the differences between people:
These may explain people’s behaviour.
They may effect how people react in situations.
(e.g. They might not want to talk about the presents they got for their birthday. They might not be able to have a big party).

14. How to be CONSIDERATE Consider what you say carefully Before you speak
Think and be smart
It’s hard to fix
A broken heart
Stop and think before you speak

15. How do you think Jimmy is feeling right now?
The Torn Heart
One Tuesday morning, when the alarm clock rang, Jimmy did not get out of bed. Ten minutes later, his mother opened the door to his room. “Come on,” she said, “You’ll be late for school again. You’re a lazy kid.”
“But Mama, I’m sick,” Jimmy said.
“Why do you always act like a baby?” Jimmy’s mother said, “Just get up and get ready.”
Jimmy made it to the bus just in time, As the doors of the bus closed and it started rolling, Jimmy remembered that he had left his homework in his bedroom.
Jimmy asked the bus driver if he would wait while he went back to get his homework. “This isn’t a taxi“, said the driver, “that’s what you get for being late.”
When Jimmy got to school he told his teacher that he had left his homework at home. She said, “That’s the fourth time this month, Jimmy. Have you really been doing your work? I’m beginning to think you’re lying. I’m afraid I’m going to have to talk to your parents about this.”
Jimmy liked to play sports, but he did not like PE class, where he was the smallest of all the boys. That day in PE they were supposed to play basketball. The teachers asked the kids to divide themselves into two teams, the Lions and Tigers. Within a few minutes, there were ten boys in each team.
Only Jimmy was left and the captain of the Lions team said: “We don’t want him—he’s no good.”
And the other boys laughed.
How do you think Jimmy is feeling right now?

16. The Torn Heart
Jimmy met up with his friends and explained what had happened in P.E. They told him not to worry about it and distracted him by telling jokes.
He went to his friend Tommy’s house after school and they played video games. “You’re so good at this!” said his friend.
Later they had tea with Tommy’s Mum. Jimmy cleared the table “You’re such a kind boy!” said Tommy’s Mum.
When he got home his mother apologised for being cross in the morning and called the school to explain about his homework.
Before bed his dad came into his room and told him that he loved him!

17. The Torn Heart
What does the heart look like now?
Is it truly fixed?

18. How to be CONSIDERATE
Have good manners
What are good manners?

19. How to be CONSIDERATE Have good manners Say please and thank you
Take turns
Hold doors
Offer your chair
Have good table manners
Clean (dust, vacuum)
Smile
Ask people how they are

20. How to be CONSIDERATE Have good table manners
How can you show Consideration when you are eating?

21. Reflect on your behaviour in the Diner
Reflect on your behaviour in the Diner. The Values Council and School Council both thought this could be better.

22. How to be CONSIDERATE Apologise We all make mistakes
Apologising shows that we care about people’s feelings
(e.g. If you lose your temper with someone then apologising shows you didn’t mean to hurt their feelings).

23. When should we do show Consideration? Why should we do these things?
To get rewards?
Why should we do these things?

24. How to be CONSIDERATE
We should do these things because it makes people feel valued, loved and respected.
They should not be done for rewards.
(e.g. You shouldn’t just hold a door because your teacher might give you a golden ticket).

25. Why is Consideration Important?

26. As we reflect, think about how CONSIDERATION makes the world a better place to be and how you can be more considerate. n

27. A prayer for all of us Here in our school
Let us be peaceful at all times.
Let our rooms be full of happiness
and respect for each other.
Let love be in our hearts
With kindness and compassion for all.
Let us remember
In learning together,
We grow together
And succeed together.
