LESSON SEQUENCE & PACING
1. First, I will help explain the formal definition of
manners to the class without giving examples. Then I
will divide class into group of 3-4 students to come up
with 1 good and 1 bad example of manners. If
students are struggling, they can have one of each
per group, preferred one of each per student. Once
students have written down examples on their sticky
notes, they will place them on the white board that is
divided into Good Manner and Bad Manner.
Teacher will read of the examples given then present
the PowerPoint examples. Play video clip.
2. Next, teacher will help students understand that
manners are different in other cultures. Provide
examples from slide. Within their groups or as an
entire class, have students discuss examples in their
lives or people they know. Ask groups to share out
some of their examples if it was a group discussion
opposed to class.
