GETTING ALONG WITH OTHERS

MOST OF US are surrounded by people. Every day we have opportunities to be with others at school, at work, and at home. Sharing experiences with them can be a wonderful part of being alive. Getting along is also the foundation for a community, a country, and a world where people can live together in peace.

Over 270 million Americans share our nation. There are nearly 6 billion people an the planet, all with their own needs, hopes, and dreams. Learning about the extraordinary mix af cultures, histories, and religions can be great fun, and can lead to a deeper understanding of other people.
