Manners matter to the kids in this lively video.

Manners matter. That lesson is dramatically demonstrated to three young students when their parents and teachers suddenly adopt some really bad manners! Whatever the explanation for this weird behavior — could it be a mysterious comet reported on the morning news? — it provides an opportunity to reflect on some basic principles of courtesy:

• Considering the feelings of others
• Being helpful and cooperative
• Taking turns
• Being a good listener
• Respecting privacy and property
• Being a good sport
• Using polite language

This fast-moving video delivers a forceful message about how manners matter in the school setting. “Older elementary and early middle schoolers will love this look at manners through the use of role reversal.”
— North Carolina Department of Public Instruction
