Listening and Taking Turns to Talk
Big Idea
Listening and Taking Turns to Talk: Let others finish, then share your idea.

One morning at the family dinner table, Ben and Hazel talked about “listening and taking turns to talk.” Good manners show respect, and good habits make every day easier. Ben said, “Let's try it today!” Hazel smiled and said, “Let's do it together.” By the end of the day, they both felt proud of the healthy choice they made.
