Why Do We Have Rules?
Think, Pair, Share

We all have rights.


The right to be treated fairly.
The right to be safe.
Rules to help us live as part of society.
The right to be heard.
The right to learn.
Rules and laws keep us safe and ensure our rights.
Why Are Rules Important?

Some rules, such as those at


school, are informal. We are
expected to follow them and
there may be a minor
consequence if we do not.

More important rules are called


laws. If we break them, there may
be more serious consequences, such
as being made to pay a fine or
being arrested.

Most rules are there to keep people safe.

Rule Breakers

Laws are rules that must be followed. People who


break the law must be held responsible for their
actions. Some of the ways this might happen are:

• A warning
• A fine
• A curfew (having to be indoors by a certain time)
• A prison sentence

Someone who has been found guilty (by a court) of


breaking a criminal law, (committing a crime), is
called a criminal.
Class Rules

We need rules at school so that everyone has a fair chance to


learn. If we break the rules at school, we do not go to prison,
but we may get a reminder or a warning.

What rules do you think are important for our classroom?

Class Rules

We need rules at school that:

Keep us safe Keep us healthy Keep us happy

How can we make sure people follow these rules?


Class Rules

We have worked together to create our class rules.


Now we must try to remember what they are and
follow them. We can help others to follow the school
rules by reminding them what they are and by
setting a good example.
