Homework:

2. Health - Relationships

You are to explain what a relationship is and who we have relationships with (family member, teachers, people from community groups).

1. Make a list of qualities that are important in positive relationships.

2. Think about a range of factors that can lead to changes in relationships such as developmental growth, new interests, family changes, new school. What strategies they used to cope with the changing relationship? Discuss this with your family.

 3. The scenario describes a change in a relationship. For this scenario, you need to identify what aspect of the relationship has changed, how that change is impacting on each of the characters and what strategies the characters could use to manage the changes.

Scenario: Khalia has just moved to a new suburb and started at a new school. She doesn’t know anyone at the school and she is feeling lonely. At lunchtimes she has no one to sit with or play with as all of the kids in her class have their own groups that they hang out with. Khalia’s teacher has noticed she is sitting by herself and she has asked a couple of girls in Khalia’s class to play with her.
