Student Directions: Here are some questions for you to answer about how you get along with others. Read each statement and choose the answer that best describes you.
1. When someone asks me how I feel, I can tell them, I feel happy, sad or mad. For example, "I was angry I was not invited to my friend's birthday party."
2. I know what I am able to do well. For example,"I am good at ice skating. My performance earned second place last week!"
3. I know my choices can affect how others feel. For example, "My brother gets mad when I borrow his bike without asking."
4. I will tell someone when I make a mistake. For example, "I left my bike out in the rain even though I was reminded to put it away."
5. When something is hard for me I ask for help. For example, "It took me three weeks to learn how to climb the rope in gym class, but I kept trying!"
6. When I am playing a game I will wait my turn. For example, "I wait for others to take their turn when we are playing Monopoly."
7. If others were saying mean things to another classmate I would tell them it is not nice. For example, "On the bus ride home, some kids starting bullying kindergartener. I told them to stop and asked the kindergartner to sit with me."
8. When I am not sure what I need to do, I ask my teacher to help me. For example, "I ask my teacher what I need to do next."
9. When I have a problem with my friends or family, I am willing to try my friend's idea to solve the problem. For example, "At lunch, my friend and I want to sit by the same person. My friend had a good idea to have our friend sit in the middle of us."
10. I listen and follow directions I am given. For example, when my teacher tells me to get ready for lunch, "I wait my turn to wash my hands and then line up quietly at the door."
11. I know what it takes to be a good friend. For example, to be a good friend to others, "I need to be a good listener and play the games my friend likes to play sometimes."
12. I am friends with people who are different than me in some ways. For example, "I have friends that have different skin color than me."
13. I know everyone needs personal space. When I am standing by others, I make sure I am at least one arm's length away from him/her.
14. I can tell how someone is feeling by looking at and listening to them. For example, "I knew my friend liked what he was watching by the big smile on his face."
15. I know the right way to get attention from adults and students. For example, "When I want to share a thought in music, I know I need to raise my hand for the teacher to call on me."
