LETS TRY TOGETHER We have all heard, Make a good first impression. Sometimes first impressions are incorrect but affect how we think or feel about a person for years to come. Think about times you have judged someone based on your first impression of them. Write about how to make a good first impression.

Slide 10

Studies show that the first impression is the most important impression. Use a firm grip when shaking a persons hand. Look the person straight in the eye. Once, when I met a person for the first time, I was facing the bright sun. I kept squinting and looking down. Later we became friends, and the person confided to me that he thought I was not friendly, because I kept looking down.

Slide 11

Always comb your hair before meeting someone you do not know. Once, my sister was excluded from a club, because she went for a meeting with the officers of that club without washing her hair. They did not want a person to represent their club with dirty, oily hair. Be sure to smile. A warm smile not only makes the person comfortable, it makes them know you are a friendly, fun person.
