A Good Friend Is
In room 16 we have been learning about what a good friend is. A good friend is someone who is Trustworthy. That means if you let your friend borrow something you can trust them to give it back. A good friend makes us happy. That means if you are sad the other person might come and say “Would you like to play with me ?” That will make the other person happy. A good friend is someone who is kind. That means you say things like “Mum can I help wash the dishes?” That is being kind. You could also ask your Mum again, “Can I help you put out the washing on the washing line?” That is also kind. A good friend is someone who shares. That means if you have a friend over and she wants to play with your toys you can share with her so she can have a turn too. A good friend is someone who makes us laugh when we’re sad. This means if your friend is sad you can come along and make your friend laugh, that will make them happy. A good friend is someone who is honest. This means if your friend starts a fight and she gets in trouble you tell the truth and you don’t lie. A good friend is someone who is respectful. This means that you don’t call your friends names that they don’t like.

What a wonderful description of what a friend is. I think you have really grasped the concept and expressed it beautifully. Well done.
March 18th, 2008 at 5:40 pmYou have nailed the attributes of what it means to be a friend. So often people think friendship is all about making a friend. But we need to know how to be a friend and keep a friend. You give us some great examples of how to be a friend and how to keep a friend.
