  1. Advisor Advisee 7th grade • Social Skills Lesson 2

  2. Last Week • Proper Introductions • Shaking Hands and Making Introductions • Can you still do it?

  3. Phone Etiquette • Doesn’t matter if you are calling or answering, it is important to be well mannered on the phone.

  4. Making a call • Stop eating and smacking your gum • Ask for the person politely • Yes- “May I speak to Sara, please?” • No- “Is Sara there?” • You don’t HAVE to tell the person answering who you are (in fact it is rude for them to ask unless they have been instructed by their parent or they are the parent), but it is a friendly gesture. • Hello, this is _____ my I speak to Sara?

  5. What time should you call? • It doesn’t matter if you are calling a friend’s cell or house, pay attention to the time. • This goes for texting also. • When calling, it does not hurt to ask, “Is this a good time to talk?”

  6. Taking a Call • If your parents have requested you answer the phone in a certain manner, do so. Example: “Hello, Smith household.” • Otherwise, a simple “Hello...” is sufficient. • It is none of your business why someone is calling for another member of your household- don’t ask. You can ask, “May I ask who’s calling?” if your parent/sibling asks you to.

  7. More.... • Please don’t yell for the person needed. • Safety reasons....Don’t tell people if your parents are home or not. Don’t give out your address or parents account numbers. • Don’t ever say, “My dad is in the bathroom.” • Give the caller your full attention. It is rude to talk on the phone while you are watching TV, carrying on conversations with others, or typing on the computer.

  8. Cell Phones • Turn off the ringer when at a public event. • Remember, people talking to themselves (that is how you look) can be distracting- take the call if it is important to another location.

  9. The Ten Commandments of Telephone Etiquette • Thou shalt not..... • make or accept calls during dinner • eat while talking on the phone • carry on conversations with people in the room while talking on the phone. • make prank phone calls • screen other people’s calls unless asked to do so.

  10. Continued from the book, How Rude! by Alex J Packer • hog the phone • Listen in on conversation of others • interrupt someone on the phone unless it is an emergency • neglect to give the messages you take • pretend your phone is “breaking up” and you have lost connection

  11. Do not copy adult habits • Today’s lesson from the book How Rude! by Alex J. Packer is to inform YOU of proper etiquette (social skills) to help you as you become an adult. • Adults do not always follow proper social skills but that does not mean that you shouldn’t. • YOU set the standard!
