Teachers, save “Accepting Rules and Authority: Asking fo…” to assign it to your class.

Learning Intention: Identify polite ways to request help from others. Simply asking for help on something may get a response, but asking politely will get a better response. Most requests can be delivered in a clear, appropriate manner and still get results. This lesson focuses on requesting, rather than demanding. Thinking questions: 1. When you want something from someone, what do you do? 2. Do you think it makes a difference in how you ask someone for something? 3. What are some things you might ask for help on at school? 4. What are some things you might ask for help on at home? 5. What could you do to make a request for help sound more polite and pleasant? Directions: Circle the students who are asking for help politely. Cross out those who are not.
