Abstract | Integrating concepts of basic citizenship education with community involvement, this experiential curriculum provides a means for developing decision making and critical thinking skills within the existing fourth grade social studies curriculum. The 11 lessons cover responsibility in the care of property, vandalism, precaution against vandalism, authority, law, citizenship and individuals as lawmakers and law followers. The lessons aim to teach students about: fire safety for conservation of life and property, the use of rational decision making, the elements of arson, the difference between public and private property, vandalism and its prevention, shoplifting, what a law is and who it affects, the meaning of and the necessity for authority, who is in authority at school and their duties, what goes into being a good citizen, and the meaning of citizenship in its various aspects. Each lesson includes a purpose statement, concepts to be learned, time and materials needed, student objectives, suggested activities, and evaluation criteria. Among the suggested activities are discussion questions, vocabulary exercises, word puzzles, opinion questionnaires, short stories, mathematics exercises, writing exercises, and true-false questions.
