Block 1 - Topic: Meet new people (Unit 1)

When you meet new people, how do you usually start a conversation? Are you the conversation starter or the follower? Share your experience.

Pobably  many people throughout the course of your dating preparations that could be The One, but you’ll never know for sure . the Starting a conversation with a stranger can be daunting, but it doesn’t have to be impossible.

Every conversation runs its course within a similar outline: making first contact, introductions, speaking with each other, and then ending the conversation - hopefully with plans to meet again. To navigate these sometimes scary but usually rewarding waters.


Some conversation starter ideas to get the words flowing:
 •Comment on an item that you both share in your immediate surroundings, such as the long lineup you’re both waiting in .

•If there is something the person is or has that truly intrigues you, simply use that as a conversation starter. This could be as simple as admiring a piece of clothing or asking them about the item they ordered.

when I know new people, I who initiated the conversation:
- I ask his name
- Then I ask that is dedicated
- how old is
- what study career

- In what cycle is now
- In what district live
- Has a job.


Example:
                                                  - hi!  What's your name
                                                 -I'm jorge
                                                 -which career are you studying?
                                                  -I'm in graphic design
                                                 -really?,and what cycle are you?
                                                  -in the third.

Step 1: 
Whether you like it or not, kids form initial opinions based on clothes, hair, and fashion sense. Make an extra effort to look your best those first few days. Looking good will boost your confidence, too!

Tip
You're not going to be rolling in friends on Day 1. Devote the first couple of weeks to laying solid groundwork.

Step 2: 
Come out of your shell. If you're naturally shy, you don't have to fake a new personality. But try to avoid looking at the ground, and flash a smile once in a while. The easier you are to approach and start a conversation with, the more other kids will want to talk to you.

Step 3: 
Find excuses to talk to people. Once you get a conversation going, be a good listener and offer up a compliment or two, no matter how small.

Tip
Build up a little courage and sit in the middle of the classroom to surround yourself with as many potential new friends as possible.

Step 4: 
Get involved in the extra-curricular activities you enjoyed at your old school. Join a sports team, help with the yearbook, try out for a play -- anything that interests you. Joining a club or team is a great way to start because you have at least one thing in common with everyone in the room.

Tip
Cast a wide net -- don't just focus on the popular people. Making friends in different circles will open you up to more options.

Step 5: 
Use the web. Sign up for a social-networking site and join your school's group page. Post some videos and pictures and write a few blog entries to showcase who you are. Kids at school will discover your personality through the web and all that small-talk torture will start to disappear.

Step 6: 
Get a part-time job where you know fellow classmates work. Meeting kids outside of school and bonding over menial work is often a recipe for friendship.

Between kindergarten and 12th grade, children in active-duty military families often change schools more than 12 times.
