2. I like talking and working
with my friends
at school.

3. Sometimes, I want to work with my friends on a project.
I sometimes feel like not listening to them or taking things they are working with by grabbing them, using mean words, yelling or hitting.
My friends get sad or mad when I hit, use mean words, or grab things and not cooperate with them.

4. I can say, “Can I use that pencil?” or “Can I read with you?”
If I want to use something that belongs to my friends or work with them on a project, I need to nicely ask to use it or to work with them.
Can I use the purple crayon?
I can say, “Can I use that pencil?” or “Can I read with you?”

5. Super Friends: First I stop, then I think about what a
Super Friend would do.
Super Friends:
Ask to share or join in nicely
Can I work with you?
Work together and cooperate
Use gentle hands and feet
Talk and share ideas
and
Listen to each other

6. I can try to be a SUPER FRIEND and work with my friends.

7. Working together can be fun!
My friends and I get to work and create things together.
My friend can take a turn with a book, then I can take a turn.
If I want to share my ideas with my friend, I can say:
“I think we can draw a picture, do you have another idea?”

8. After I ask my friend to share a crayon,
Can I use that
crayon for my picture?
sometimes I might have to wait for my turn,
but I will get a turn soon.

9. My friends and I like working together.
Sometimes when my friends are working, I get
upset. I may want them to listen to me or let me use
some of the materials.
But my friends can use the materials and share ideas and I can wait for my turn, as long as we all cooperate.

10. My friends get sad when I don’t listen, grab materials, hit, or yell and use mean words.
I can try to go with the flow instead.

11. I can stop, take three deep breaths, and say
I can go with the flow.
I can stop, take three deep breaths, and say
To myself: “I can go with the flow.”
I can go with the flow

12. I like going to school and learning and working with my friends and teachers.
But sometimes I have a hard time and feel
frustrated or angry. If I feel this way,
I need to STOP, THINK, and COOPERATE.

13. I can also remember that a Super Friend can
stop, take 3 deep breaths, and say: “I can go with the flow.”
I can go with the flow
If I am still having a hard time, I can ask the teacher
for help. I can raise my hand & wait for the teacher and
say: “Can you please help me?”
Can you please help me?

14. Super Friends: Ask to share or join in nicely
Can I work with you?
Work together and cooperate
Use gentle hands and feet
Talk and share ideas
and
Listen to each other
Go with the flow.

15. Everyone is happy
when I am a SUPER FRIEND!
