Welcome, friends! Today we are our classroom’s Friendship Helpers. We’ll learn how to get along by practicing kindness, cooperation, and clear communication. Let’s get started!

Explain that these three friendship superpowers help us work and play well with others. Ask: What does kindness mean? What about cooperation? What is clear communication?

Model the Kindness Clap with one student first. Encourage big smiles and clear compliments. Keep the pace lively so all students get one turn in about 2 minutes.

Divide students into groups of 2–3. Hand out [Friendship Scenarios Cards](#friendship-scenarios-cards). Remind them to use kindness, cooperation, and clear communication as they plan. Circulate to support and award [Kindness Heart Tokens](#kindness-heart-tokens) for positive teamwork.

Show a few scenario examples. Invite one volunteer to read each scenario aloud. Ask the class: Which strategy could help in this situation? Encourage thoughtful answers.

Bring everyone back to the circle. Choose 2–3 groups to share which strategy they used and how it helped. Record key words (kindness, teamwork, listening) on chart paper.

Praise all groups for their great teamwork and caring ideas. Remind students to use these friendship strategies every day—at recess, in line, and in group work.
