The Lunchtime Joke

Students read a narrative about teasing in the cafeteria and answer multiple-choice questions that highlight empathy, friendship, and standing up for others. The story demonstrates how a bystander’s kind words can help someone feel supported. The worksheet builds comprehension while reinforcing the message that teasing others about their food or appearance is unkind and harmful.
