it was obvious that they should have rights |

not have rights in the classroom. |
| |
|
|
D. Independent Practice-
1. Students will write a reflection on the presentations by other
students and explain why it is necessary and good that students have
rights.
2.Extension activity: have the students create a power=point of how
the rights in the classroom can and should extend to the family and
community. |

|
|

the blank for the scenario writing assignment. |

and assignments and write three questions that result from their reflection.
|

|
|
G. Closure-
| The students will have a classroom discussion on the rights and
responsibilities and relate their feelings as to whether the classroom
can successfully implement the rights and responsibilities in the
classroom and if it is feasible to extend this to the family and community.
|
| |
|
7. Evaluation-
|
| The students had no trouble coming up with lists and lists and examples
and scenarios for rights; however, they really struggled with coming
up with responsibilities for the students. |
| |
|
8. Teacher Reflection-
|
| I would try to separate this in to three lessons. One on rights,
one on responsibilities and one on extending these to the family and
community. |
