HOW TO MAKE

FRIENDS BY

ASKING QUESTIONS

14.1 - APRENDIENDO A HACER PREGUNTAS CON BOBBY

Here we go!

That Saturday, Bobby arrived with his head down, wagging his little tail because he didn’t know how to make friends at his new school.

Grandpa Berny looked at him over his round glasses and asked, “What’s wrong, buddy?”

Grandpa: When you careabout others and want to get to know them... that opens the door to friendship!

And he said to him:Bobby, making friends is not magic... it's a gift that you give first.

What isyour name?

Let's start with the most important thing... Ask them their names!

Where are you from?

To get to know someone better, ask them where they are from.

What did you dothis weekend?

Talking about the weekend always opens up conversation.

What grade are you in?

To find out their level, ask them their grade level.

What time do you wake up?

Routines also help you get to know each other.

What's your favorite...(food, color, game, animal)

When you ask their favorites, they always smile.

What do you like to do?

Everyone likes to talk about what they enjoy doing.

What time doyou go to bed?

And they love this one because everyone goes to sleep at different times.

How old are you?

This one is classic and works very well with children.

When isyour birthday?

You can ask when their birthday is.

And what happens if I am the only one asking questions? And they never ask me anything?

Grandpa: Buddy, listen to this. There are children who are shy, nervous, or don't know how to ask questions yet.

Then you keep being you: kind, curious, and respectful. Don't change your heart just because others don't know how to use theirs yet.

Of course! Asking first makes you a little social leader. And being a leader is not about talking more...it's about making others feel important.

So... is it okay if I'm the one who starts the conversation?

Buddy...

You don't ask questions so that they like you. You ask questions because you are a good friend. And children who know how to be good friends always find others like them. Always.

THE END...
