Superhero role play can be directly linked to children's growing understanding and engagement with classroom Kawa rules like respect, being a friend, and listening. When children take on the roles of superheroes, they learn to respect one another's ideas and space, as teamwork and collaboration are key to their imaginative missions. 

Role-playing as superheroes naturally encourages them to practice being a friend, as they support each other in overcoming challenges, reinforcing the importance of kindness and helping others. Listening becomes essential in this dynamic, as they must follow directions and respond to their peers' ideas to achieve shared goals. By acting out these superhero scenarios, children internalize the classroom Kawa values in an engaging, playful way, making these principles a natural part of their interactions. This learning helps translate role play experiences into real-life behavior, deepening their commitment to the classroom rules.
