About this resource

What's inside this resource

Students will love making these "keys" to friendship. In this document file, there is a sheet with 6 pre-filled keys with tips inside the keys. There is also a sheet with 3 blank keys so students may write in their own tips to add to their keychain. Simply read a story about friendship and then ask students to share how the characters in the story were being good friends. Then have each student create their own set of keys to friendship. Instructions provided.
