Classroom Note:

The Creation of stories using these themes: Tolerance, service to the nation, respect, obedience.

• Tolerance is about understanding and accepting that other people have different beliefs and practices.
• Service to the nation means helping and doing good things for our country and its people.
• Respect is treating others the way you want to be treated, with kindness and consideration.
• Obedience means listening to and following rules or instructions given by those who are responsible for us.

By using these themes in our stories, we can learn important lessons about how to behave and treat others, which helps us live together in harmony.

Questions to Evaluate Pupils’ Comprehension:

1. What does tolerance mean, and can you give an example from a story we shared?
2. How can you show service to your nation in your daily life?
3. Why is respect important in our lives?
4. Give an example of a time when being obedient was important.

Note to Teachers:
Adjust the complexity of the stories and the depth of discussion to match the comprehension levels of your pupils. Encourage creativity and ensure that each child participates and is heard during the group activities. The aim is to foster a love for storytelling while instilling valuable moral lessons.
