 Social Studies: Good Choices & Bad Choices

~We can make good choices or bad choices.
~When we make good choices, we feel good inside and make others feel good, too. Good choices can keep us safe. When we make good choices, we are choosing to be a good citizen.
~When we make bad choices, it makes us feel yucky inside. Sometimes we feel good, but after awhile the bad choice makes us feel bad. Sometimes bad choices are dangerous or make other people feel bad, too.
~Today we are going to look at some pictures and decide what a good choice and bad choice would be. We will discuss what a good or bad choice would be for each situation.

~Tomorrow is library day. Be sure to return your book to receive a new one.
~The book order is due Wednesday, October 10.
