This resource focuses on teaching students the importance of taking turns in a game-like setting. The learning goal is for students to practice waiting for their turn, using polite language, and celebrating others' successes. Through engaging activities, such as playing virtual games, students will learn to express themselves positively while participating in games with friends. The resource includes interactive components, where students fill in the blanks with appropriate phrases, select games, and reflect on their feelings during the game. It emphasizes good sportsmanship and kindness, encouraging students to celebrate their peers’ achievements with supportive language and gestures.
