Civics Standard Three - Grades 4-5

Sample Activities

Students might identify individuals and/or groups within their community who work for the common good on a voluntary basis (civic associations; booster clubs; hospital volunteers, church charities; volunteer fire and rescue workers) and describe the contributions made, as well as the reasons people five for volunteering their time [Citizenship].

Parent Partnership Project: Students might take a list of classroom rules and responsibilities home and sit down with their parents to compare them with home rules and responsibilities. This would prompt a student discussion of similarities and differences between the two sets of rules [Citizenship].
