Calendar of Events
Spend some time talking with your family about be-
ing respectful and how respect and disrespect is
shown in everyday situations. Encourage them to
talk about one of the following:
A friend borrows one of your toys and won’t re-
turn it. Is that friend being respectful? What
do you do?
You tell a friend a secret and he tells it to a
few other people. Is that friend being respect-
ful?
You’re at the monthly 4-H meeting; raise your
hand to make a comment and everyone listens
quietly while you talk. Are members of the 4-H
club being respectful? Are you re-
spectful when others are talking?
People who show high respect and
are considered a person of charac-
ter are those who: treat others
with respect, follow the Golden
Rule, be tolerant and accepting of
differences, use good manners, not
bad language, be considerate of
the feelings of others, don’t
threaten, hit or hurt anyone, deal
peacefully with anger, insults, and
disagreements.

Have members design a “GLURP”:
G = Something I’m GOOD at
L = Something I LIKE
U = Something I could do UMPTEEN times
R = Something I do to RELAX
P = Something I’m PROUD of
They can use art, words, or pictures. Allow the members to share
their GLURP with the group. Be sure the members speak loudly and
clearly and that the group is quiet and respectful as each person
shares his/her GLURP.
A Person of Respect

than good hair—like what kind of person you
are inside.”
