"What Should We Do?"
Activity
Summary
Participants brainstorm how to deal with different situations where they might be able to help.
Instructional Strategies
1. Show pictures and/or video of certain situations at school and in the surrounding neighborhood that elicit a desire to help.
2. For example, find pictures of garbage on the floor, an elderly person dropping their cane, a person not able to get through a door because their hands are full, a child crying or looking sad, or classmates arguing or fighting.
3. Hold a classroom discussion about how everyone thinks they should respond.
4. For younger children, present pictures of three possible responses and have them indicate the response they would choose.
