Living and Learning: I greet someone politely - St James' Primary School, Wetherby

We’ve been thinking about manners and what they are.

We agreed that saying ‘please‘ and ‘thank you‘ were fantastic examples of good manners and how to be polite.

So this week, we’ll be trying to be polite by greeting people at different times of the day and asking how they are.

We will also try to ‘bounce’ a question back to be even more polite e.g.

Mr Mills: Good morning, Cohen. How are you today?

Cohen: I’m fine, thanks. How are you?

Mr Mills: I’m great. Thank you for asking.
