Rules in the Community
Lesson Outline
Today we read a book by Ellen Javernick entitled, What If Everybody Did That? In this story, we see examples of people breaking simple rules and feeling that it is no big deal as it is just one little thing. The author then expands the perspective to consider what would happen to people and our world if everyone broke these simple little rules. This included concepts such as feeding an animal at the zoo one little piece of popcorn, even though the sign says not to feed him or if everyone yelled out during story time. We then worked in Danny's interactive notebook examining rules in the community. Danny and I discussed various rules to keep our community safe and nice. He chose to write the rules: 1. Do not drive too fast. 2. Do not throw garbage. 3. Do not feed the zoo animals. 4. Do not steal things. We discussed the consequences of these actions. To follow up, we completed a picture sort of positive and negative behaviors and discussed what the kids were doing in each picture. Our vocabulary focus for our current studies is on two words: community (a place where people, live, work, and play) and citizen (a person who lives in a community and has certain rights and duties). Finally, we watched a Pebble Go digital emergent reader called, In My Neighborhood. We saw various types of neighborhoods and how people work and play together.
