The lesson “Understands Values and Rules” teaches children about the importance of social and self-awareness, including respecting values and rules. Relating the value of rules to games and playing on the playground, each child names at least three rules he or she feels are important to follow in his or her own life, outside of just playtime. The children will explain reasons why rules need to be followed and will demonstrate participating in an activity where it is necessary to follow and respect rules. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 3-5 years, and is the 41st lesson in the 2nd Year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “Leadership Preparation” unit.
