Respect Rap

First graders enjoyed shaking maracas and tapping sticks to the beat of this respect rap!  See if you, too, can identify examples of respect and disrespect in the video.  Click on the link below to view the respect rap.

RESPECT

The pillar of character Prairie Valley is focusing on currently is respect.  Last week both 3rd grade classes brainstormed ways to be respectful.  They took turns writing their examples on the letters of RESPECT, correlating the first letter of their example with a chosen letter of RESPECT.  For example, 'raise your hand' was written on the letter 'R.'  'Exercise' shows respect for ourselves and was written on the letter 'E.'  Third graders waited patiently while their classmates wrote down their examples, thus showing respect to others :)
