I always do friendship lessons in each grade level. My 6th grade students just finished writing recipes for friendship! The ingredients include character traits and positive qualities they look for in a friend. The steps are some version of the following:
1) Introduce yourself
2) Have a nice conversation with one another
3) Invite the person to have lunch with you or to hang out at recess
4) Continue to have nice conversations and hang out
5) Continue to decide if each person has the qualities they look for in a good friend
6) Be a good friend! In order to have good friends, you need to be a good friend :)
