"Raise your hands if you can tell me a rule that we have in the classroom? How about another place where there rules? What kind of rules are there? Now, who can give me an example of a law? Where are laws found? We are going to quickly go over what you already learned in your previous classes about rules and laws."
Pick a # of students to answer, if they didn't get called they can share with a classmate beside them before moving on to the next question.
The PowerPoint includes pictures of policemen, judges, soccer coaches, parents, bullies, street signs, child holding hand to cross street, going down slides, and sunscreen. Quiz the class on what each picture represents, is this someone with state/government power? Does this person have the authority to give you a ticket? Is this an example of a law or rule?
