    *** DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

    - Think of a time when you started a friendship. What happened? Who reached out first, you or the other kid? How did you and your friend show each other that you were open to friendship?

    - Dr. Friendtastic says, “Friendships take time to grow.” What does that mean? (Hint: Why do you NOT have to worry if you’re not instantly close friends with someone?)

    - What’s one example of something kind you’ve done for another kid? How did that kid react?

    - Why is it usually not a good idea to read a book at lunch or recess? (Hint: What message does that send other kids?)

    - Why is it important to try to learn other kids’ names?
