My Community

Welcome to My Community. This lesson covers key standards-aligned content.

Core Concept

A COMMUNITY is a group of people who live, work, and play in the same area. Communities have HELPERS: police officers keep us safe, firefighters put out fires, doctors heal us, teachers help us learn, mail carriers deliver mail. Every person has a ROLE. Communities have RULES to keep everyone safe and happy. NEIGHBORHOODS are parts of communities with homes, schools, parks, and stores. Good citizens follow rules, help others, and take care of shared spaces.

Examples

Apply these concepts by looking for real-world examples in your daily life and studies.
