Source document note

The official curriculum document has a fault in this entry, so the curriculum text above is transcribed exactly as printed:

• content standard text - p.42: the document prints no Content Standard cell for sub-strand K1.3.2 anywhere (printed p.42 leaves the column blank); the first indicator's own words are reused so the field is not empty

Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

In a Community Circle time have learners sit in a semi-circle. Always welcome and greet the learners before you introduce the theme for the week. Have a cut-out papers with the polite words/phrases including greetings and discuss them with learners. Invite learners to demonstrate how to show respect to each other, to adults in our society, mother/father and then teachers. Display a conversational poster and have learners observe, think pair share and describe some behaviours that depict respect and politeness at home and at school.
E.g. saying "please, and "thank you", asking permission before doing everything, e.g. saying "may I go out" etc..
Create a scenario for learners to tell the appropriate polite words/phrases that they will use and why? Have learners role play some of the scenarios
