SLOVENIA'S 5 CORE VALUES

POSTER What happens when trust breaks down

Objective Understanding trust as a relationship.

Activity

• Discussion in a circle or work in pairs.
• Questions: How is trust built? How is it broken? Can we rebuild it? Emphasis: Trust is built slowly, broken quickly.

Foreword (10 minutes):

The teacher initiates a discussion in a circle or in pairs:

• What does trust mean?
• When do we need them? (friends, family, classmates, teachers)
• When was the last time you trusted someone? How did it turn out?

The teacher writes keywords on the board: building trust, destruction, rebuilding, responsibility, honesty.

MIDDLE SECTION (25 minutes)

Instructions for working on the poster

• Students work in pairs or small groups.
• On the poster, they draw or write:
  • How trust is built (actions, behaviour, honesty).
  • How trust is broken (lying, betrayal, not keeping agreements).
  • When and how can we repair it (apology, change in behaviour, time).

Questions for reflection and help:

• Building trust
  • What does trust mean?
  • Getting a job done to the best of my ability, being reliable by doing what I say I will do, always telling the truth, and following through on promises are all actions and behaviours that help build trust.
  • How long does it take for trust to develop?
  • Who all contributes to being able to trust someone?
• Breach of trust
  • It means that trust has been broken.
  • Lying, breaking promises, betrayal, dishonesty, and lack of transparency can quickly erode trust.
  • Who is affected by the loss of trust?
  • How do we feel when someone doesn't trust us, or when someone betrays our trust?
• Restoring trust
  • Is it possible to rebuild trust? How?
  • What actions show that someone is trying to rebuild trust?
  • How long does it usually take for trust to be rebuilt?
• Reflection
  • How can we ourselves contribute to trust in the classroom or community?
  • Zato, da gradimo zaupanje, vzdržujemo dobre odnose, ohranjamo integriteto in ustvarjamo pozitivno okolje.
  • What are the consequences of a loss of trust for friendships, cooperation, or community?
