Dear participants in this project,
This is our questionnaire which we asked members of our school community to participate in.
We're already looking forward to meet you in a week!
Manners
and more(s) – Questionnaire
“The hardest job kids face today is learning
good manners without seeing any.” This is Fred Astaire’s view on the topic we
focus on in the Comenius Project. When it comes to manners there is a wide
range of opinions: From “out of date” to “up to date”. No matter, what opinion
you are of – most likely you have already experienced situations you still
remember because people forgot about their manners. Thus, in our project we are
evaluating “Manners and more(s) – WHY they still matter!” and politely ask you
to contribute to our project by answering this questionnaire. Having in mind
Louis Nizer’s quote: “When a man points a finger at someone else,
he should remember that four of his fingers are pointing at himself”,
the following questions relate to social behaviour at our school and in our
school community.
