Discussion Prompt For Our Upcoming Unit: "Participating in Our Community"

Helping Hands

Dear Students,

Our upcoming unit is "Participating in Our Community."  In this unit, we will explore topics such as being a responsible community member; understanding the law, our community resources, and opportunities for volunteering. I am as excited as you are to go out and meet our community members, utilize volunteering opportunities and prepare a delicious Thanksgiving meal with other classes for our annual fundraiser!

Our classroom and school are an important part of our community, too. This is why, for our class discussion next Wednesday, this is what you will do:

• Choose a social topic in our school to educate other students about.

• Let our classroom helper Ms. Voki Avatar assist you in organizing your thoughts! Use the link below to hear Ms. Avatar walk you through the steps. You will need to write down what the issue is, who is affected by it and ideas for a solution.

        Useful Tip: You can listen to Ms. Avatar as many times as you need. She is more than happy to help!
