Show genuine interest and excitement about what your classmate says. Let them speak their mind and pay close attention. Ask them questions about themselves and their interests to keep the conversation going. Your classmates will feel great around you and might want to spend more time with you. Try asking questions like these: "What topic did you pick for the science project?" "What did you do over the weekend?" "Which TV shows do you like to watch?" Avoid interrupting your friend. This can seem rude and annoying. Even if you're talking with a classmate you don't know very well, open your mind and listen closely. You might just find that you have a lot in common! If you exclude other people from sitting near you or hanging out with you, you're being mean. This behavior will make you cliquey, but it won't make you popular. If most of your classmates see you as being a nice person, you'll be very popular at school. A clique is a group of friends who purposely leave other kids out. Cliques look cool in some movies, books, and TV shows. While these stories are entertaining, they aren't good examples of how to behave. Gossip can be a quick way to get a few people to listen to you, but your words are harmful to the other person and to yourself. Don't make fun of a classmate behind their back or start spreading rumors. Try to be empathetic instead. If a friend starts trying to gossip with you, change the subject. Empathy means putting yourself in the other person's shoes so you can understand what they might be feeling. If word gets around about your trash-talking, your other friends will feel betrayed and won't feel comfortable around you anymore. Here's how you could change the subject: "Hey Kelly, I get that you might not like Lucy's outfit today, but I think Lucy is really sweet. Let's try not to be mean, ok? But speaking of clothes, what are you planning to wear for the music class recital next week?" Avoid threatening your classmates, saying mean and nasty things to them, and physically hurting them. Stand up against bullying when you can, and you'll gain popularity with your peers. Bullies might seem powerful but they aren't popular or well-liked. Avoid using stereotypes to come up with mean things to say. You'll miss out on a lot of possible friendships.

Article: While you can perform a 180 on your skateboard from a stand still position, it will be easier if you already have some momentum going. A few pushes should work (if you are doing a gap then do more pushes, but you should only try this if you have done a 180 plenty of times before). If this is your first time attempting this trick or you're still new to it, then you should go at a slower pace so you have more of a handle on your board. Once you've got a few pushes in and have some momentum built up, it's time to place your feet in the modified ollie position for your 180. Plant your back foot on the tail of your board while you rotate and slide your front foot to the edge of the board. Remember that your back foot should be on the back edge of the tail. If you're doing a backside 180, have your front shoulder slightly lowered and in front of you and bend your knees. For a frontside, do the same with your back shoulder. This part may feel natural, but if you wind too far, then you'll over spin. If you don't wind enough, then you won't spin enough. This might take some practice so just remember to keep patient. When you do try to execute the trick if you spin too much you'll over rotate and you may lose your board from under you. If you don't spin enough your board won't turn enough and may land sideways causing a stop to forward momentum. You may also want to start to turn the board in the direction you want it to go with your back foot. For a backside 180 you'll be turning towards your back instead of your front, and vice versa for a frontside. It will be complicated in the beginning, and takes a few tries to fully get it. For a backside 180, if you ride "goofy" you'll want to start to turn the board to your right, and if you're "regular" turn the board to your left. For a frontside 180, "goofy riders will start to turn the board left, and "regular" riders will turn the board right. Push the tail of your board down until it hits the ground. When you feel it hit, that's when you'll begin to slide your front foot upwards. Use force, but not too much, as too much pressure won't allow you to get the lift you need. For "regular" skaters you'll swipe your left foot up and left for a backside 180, and right for a frontside 180. For "goofy" skaters you'll swipe your right foot up and right for a backside 180, and left for a frontside 180. Remember here that you're turning starting at the top of your body with your shoulders and then letting your legs follow you. As you spin your shoulders and then your waist and legs, lift your body upwards with your board. Don't lock your knees. If you extend your legs and lock your knees you will push the board down and away from you, preventing it from spinning along with you.
