Welcome to the first day of Street Law. You have already started participating in the warm up today, and you didn't even know it!
For the first 10 minutes of class today, you got to experience what life might be like if we didn't have any government. At some point we started to go over some basic rules for the class. Think about what the classroom would be like if I hadn't intervened, and continued to allow the students to do what they wanted.
Answer the following questions, either typed, or on a separate sheet of paper. All of your answers should be in complete sentences.
1) What would happen in the classroom if there were no rules or laws?
2) What if we had rules and laws in class, but no one really made sure that people followed them?
3) How was the classroom different, once we established some of the rules (or our laws)?
4) Come up with a list of the 5 most important rules we will need for our class.
Once you have finished, double check with me before you print anything. Then you can return to your seat, and share some of your ideas for important rules with others in the class.
