"Do not ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive." - Howard Thurman

9-O RESPECT brainstorm

RESPECT: What does it mean?

- listening to other people
- doing what your teachers ask
- treat others as you would like to be treated (the Golden Rule)
- stand up for others
- give people the space they need
- respect the privacy of others
- be just/fair
- don't judge people based on: looks, background, clothes, education, culture, religion, lifestyle, size, colour, etc.
- peace
- walk away from conflict when necessary, give people space when you're having a disagreement/fight, respect people even when it seems difficult
- if necessary, talk to someone else when you're angry with somebody - don't take anger out on them - or talk to them and tell them how you feel in a mature, respectful, and productive manner (no immature name calling)
- take a deep breath, count to 10
- respect for self (body, mind, spirit)
- respect your goals, stay true to yourself


Once you have created your RESPECT poster, please save it with your first and last name and hand in to the 9-S drop box (NOT 9-O please as I do not have access to it). Thanks!
