Its OK Not to Win I like to

It’s OK Not to Win I like to play games with my friends. I have to take turns to be the winner. Sometimes, I am the winner. This makes me happy. I can say, “Good game!” or, “That was fun!” Sometimes, I do not win and my friend wins instead. This makes me feel sad or sometimes mad.

What Should I Do? I can say, “Maybe I’ll win next time. ” I can say, “That’s not fair!”

Well Done! Great Choice! I can say, “I feel sad that I did not win. ” I can say, “It is OK that I did not win this time. ” I can say, “Maybe I will win next time. ” I can tell my friend, “That was a good game!” My teacher can help me with this.

Hmmm. . . Let’s Think About What Happens If We Get Angry about Not Winning If we get angry, the game might change and it won’t be fun anymore. The other person might be sad that you got angry. The other person might not want to play the game with you again. How would you feel if your friend got angry at you for winning a game? Remember that you might not win the game every time you play. It is OK not to win the game.

It’s OK Not to Win Every Time I will try to remember that it is OK not to win the game. I will try to be happy for my friend who won the game. My teacher will help me with this. My friends will feel happy and we can all play together.
