Elaborations

  • • Elaboration developing and justifying a set of fair rules and consequences for the class
  • • Elaboration identifying familiar rules, how rules protect the rights of others, what their responsibilities are to others, and the consequences when rules are not followed
  • • Elaboration exploring who has the authority to make rules in different contexts (for example, parents, teachers, coaches) and considering why rules differ across these contexts, such as a school playground, in class, at home, or in sport
  • • Elaboration discussing situations where it is not fair to have one rule that treats everyone the same; for example, if some people, such as students with disability, have different needs or would be unable to follow the rules
