As part of the Social Education in PSHE, children are taught about manners and how important it is to always be polite. In this quiz, written for children in year 1 and year 2, we give some examples of how to use good manners.
We all want to be nice people. Manners are words and actions that we can do to help us be nice to others. It is important to be polite and use our manners whenever possible. You should already know quite a few manners which your parents will have taught you, such as saying please or thank you. There are many more to learn as you grow up.
Even as an adult, manners still matter. Play this quiz and if you get all the questions correct, then you have a good understanding of manners.
