Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Young students view this presentation which goes over the concepts of being a good citizen, what volunteers do, what our basic rights are, and what types of organizations in our society are considered to be led by volunteers. The last two slides of the presentation invite students to talk about what rights they have, and the way members of a community show good citizenship.
