El Valor Mas Importarte Para Mi

Most Important Values in Life

My favorite value is: respect

What is respect?

Respect means showing regard and appreciation for the worth of someone or something. It means honor and esteem. It includes respect for self, respect for the rights and dignity of all persons, and respect for the environment that sustains life. Respect keeps us from hurting what we ought to value.

Why is respect important?

Much of the universal values and virtues that contribute to the good of the individual and society and affirm our human dignity are derived from the value of respect and the value of responsibility.

We need respect to collaborate and to have a peaceful world.

Children with respect -

Listen

Keep unkind thoughts to themselves

Speak kindly to teachers and others

Play fairly and wait their turn

Raise their hands before talking

Say "please" and "thank you"

Clean up after themselves
