What Are Good Manners in the Middle School Classroom and Why They Are Needed

Do middle school students need to learn good manners? Is it still useful for students to learn good social skills? Are you the one that needs to teach this? Do you even have the time?

These might be the questions you are asking yourself about now.

Trust me, your students need you to show them how to not be socially awkward or uncomfortable.

When you teach manners and life skills in your classroom, you add a great deal of value to the lives of your students.

Here is how they feel when using good manners:

More confident
Self-assured
Ready to take more risks
Happier and healthy
Friendlier

Lesson Plans to Teach Life Skills in Your Classroom: An Interview

“Me on Mondays” a Teacher’s Habit for Her Students

Why the title “Me on Mondays”?

When you listen to my interview with Elizabeth Osbourne, you will learn all about a very popular module in our Communication Skills curriculum.

Elizabeth and I connected by phone one evening as she had questions about our curriculum. The school purchased the Manners To Go lesson plans to teach first impressions, communications skills and table manners to her students.

The Hawbridge School in North Carolina where she has taught for many years has a dedicated life skills program.

Listen in, as we have an informative discussion about the benefits and the reasons why life skills are important.

Oh! And listen for her discussion about a “slow lunch” and why this is so meaningful for her students. In fact, they love it so much they ask for it frequently.
