Group 1: Family Relationships
 Family relationships refer to the bonds between individuals connected
through kinship, such as parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles,
or step-parents. These relationships often involve support, care, and
shared experiences.
 Example: A teenager argues with their sibling about a borrowed item
but later makes up by helping with homework, showing the ups and
downs of family bonds.

Group 2: Friendships
 Friendships are relationships between individuals who are not related
but share a bond of mutual affection and trust. Friends often offer
emotional support, companionship, and a sense of belonging.
 Example: Two friends plan a surprise birthday party for another
friend, showing cooperation, care, and trust in their relationship.

Group 3: Acquaintanceships
 Acquaintanceships involve people you know slightly but are not close
friends, like neighbors, work colleagues, or individuals you see at social
events. These relationships are often polite but lack deep emotional
connections.
 Example: A student greets their seatmate politely and engages in
small talk about an upcoming school event, reflecting the courteous
yet distant nature of acquaintanceships.

Group 4: Community Relationships


 Community relationships describe interactions between individuals and
their larger community or organization. These relationships focus on
cooperation, mutual aid, and collective responsibility.
 Example: A group of students joins a community clean-up drive,
coordinating tasks and working together for the benefit of their
neighborhood.
Good day, class!
Today, we will talk about something we all experience every day — social
relationships. Let’s break it down into simple ideas so we can all easily
understand.
Let’s start with the basics: What are social relationships?
Social relationships refer to the connections between people who interact
with each other regularly. These relationships feel meaningful because the
people involved care about or recognize each other in some way.
Now, let’s dig a little deeper! Relationships are simply how two or more
people treat and behave toward one another. There are different kinds of
relationships, but today, we will focus on four main types:

1. Family Relationships
 Family relationships are the connections we have with our relatives —
like our parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, and uncles. These are
people we are connected to by blood or kinship.
 Example: Your parents, who support and care for you every day, or
your cousins, whom you might only see during family gatherings —
they are all part of your family relationships.
 Funny example: That one tita (aunt) who always says, "Oh, you’ve
grown so much!" even though you saw her last week — classic family
relationship moment!

2. Friendships
 Friendships are bonds we form with people we are not related to, but
choose to spend time with. Friends are those we trust, respect, and
enjoy being around.
 Example: The classmate you share lunch with every day or the person
you talk to about your hobbies and problems — they are your friends.
 Funny example: That friend who says, "I’m on my way!" but is still at
home in their pajamas — we all have that one friend!

3. Acquaintanceships
 Acquaintances are people you know but are not close to. These might
be people you see often — like a neighbor, a classmate you don’t talk
to much, or someone you only know by name.
 Example: A schoolmate from another section you nod at in the
hallway — you know who they are, but you’re not friends.
 Funny example: When you see an acquaintance in public and both of
you do the awkward smile-and-nod combo — because you’re not sure
if saying "hi" is too much!

4. Community Relationships
 Community relationships are the connections between individuals and
the larger group or organization they belong to. This could be the
relationship between a person and their neighborhood, school, or local
community.
 Example: When you join a community clean-up or attend a school
event where everyone works together — that shows a community
relationship.
 Funny example: That moment when you join a community event just
for the free snacks — teamwork makes the dream work, right?

Why are these relationships important?


 Family relationships give us support and security.
 Friendships help us feel connected and happy.
 Acquaintanceships teach us politeness and social skills.
 Community relationships encourage teamwork and responsibility.
Class Discussion:
 Can you give an example of a family relationship you value?
 Do you have a friend who always supports you? How do they show it?
 Can you think of someone you know but aren’t really close to — maybe
a classmate or neighbor?
 Have you ever joined an activity to help your community? What was it?

Summary: Social relationships are all around us — with our families,


friends, acquaintances, and communities. Understanding these relationships
helps us become more caring and responsible individuals.
Thank you for listening! Let’s continue to build positive relationships with
everyone around us!
