Has something bad ever happened to someone in school? Have you ever helped someone even when they didn’t ask you to? If your answer is yes then that is great you have shown Sportsmanship, but if your answer is no then lets find out why you should have sportsmanship in the classroom.
I feel like sportsmanship in the classroom is friendship. This is important because when you treat other people in a kind way ten they are most likely going to treat you in a kind way. Like if you help someone pick up their things in school because they dropped them that is really helpful but if they drop their things and you stand there and kick their things around and say things like ‘watch where you are going your freak!” Or something else really rude like that you are not showing them really good sportsmanship at school.
When you respect someone you do not call them names and you also do not beat on them. Respect and friendship is important because to have good sportsmanship you need to respect other people and you need to befriend people even if they are not your friend. What I am trying to say about befriending people who may not even be your friend is treat people like a friend even if they are not your friends. Treat them how you would treat your friends you would not beat on your friends you also would not call your friends mean names. I remember when a girl got book dropped or the things got knocked out of her hands. I felt terrible seeing this so I got on the ground and started helping her pick up her things. Do you stand there and laugh when someone gets book dropped or another bad thing happens? I don’t know about you but I would get down and start helping them get their things. I just ask you will you be the type of person to show sportsmanship or the type to pick on and laugh in someones face. Just make te right decision.
Cierra, you have great points. I was just hoping to read some first person accounts that you have witnessed or been a part of at school. Where are your stories?
I would totally do the same things. I would help people pick up their things if they drop something and I would be nice to people. You did a great job Cierra.
