Whilst we are staying safe at home it gives us time to see and think more about our local area. What are the positives about the area that we live in? What are the negatives? Today you will learn about community: what is is; who it is; how it can have an impact on the area that you reside (live) in and how you can play a positive role when the restrictions are lifted. You might think about some ways that you can change things for the better, with the help of your family.
Read this presentation and then complete the sheet (there are multiple sheet layout options so have a look through and print your favourite one to complete your work). You can also complete the work in your book.
