Friendship

Today we talked about what makes a good friend and what you will do to be a good friend. You had great ideas about what makes good friends, like being trustworthy and honest, having fun, cheering you etc.
Do you have any good examples of something that shows a good friend?
Try not to use names

Example: My friend is good because when I get sad about missing my family, she cheers me up by taking my mind off it, like suggesting we go for a walk.



Can you think of some other real examples of what makes a good friend?
