Making Friends in High School

Mindy’s Story

When my friends are talking and I walk up….

I should wait for a break in the conversation….

My comment should acknowledge the topic my friends were speaking about

This is not the right way….

My friends conversation….

• Ashley: Did you see the game last night?

• Brian: It was awesome.

• Carly: I couldn’t believe that we won in the last two seconds.

• Dan: I think we are going to state this year.

Mindy

• Unicorns are nice.

This is the right way….

• Who made the final shot?

If I follow these ideas

• I will have a lot of friends.
