“Return to your seat and get your list of 3 ways back out in front of you”
Do closure/ review learning outcomes
(CAEP K-6 3.d)
VII. Check for understanding
To check for understanding, I would partner them up or into small groups and give them a
paragraph or short story of a responsibility. Then after reading, have them identify the
responsibility in the story and what could be a possible consequence of not doing.
Scenario 1: Hi, my name is Zach and I have a younger sister. Sometimes when my parents go out I
will watch her until they come home. I don’t always like it because she always wants me to have a
tea party with her and I don’t like that. But I love her, so I do it anyways.
Scenario 2: Oh no, I work up for school this morning with nothing clean to wear! I guess I have to
wear some clothes that are already dirty. I should have done my responsibility, or I wouldn’t be in
this place. Guess I should have listened to my mom.
Scenario 3 (me): Now that I am older and in high school, I started cooking and make family
dinners. I am the first one home because I am coming from school and that gets out a lot earlier
than my mom and dad get out of work.
Scenario 4: I really want to go on this camping trip with my friends! But it cost $100 for me to go
so I mowed lawns and washed cars to help pay for my trip. I had so much fun on the trip and my
friends and I made some great memories. I’m so glad I got to go!
Scenario 5: In college, you have a lot of tasks to get done throughout the day. You only have so
many hours in the day to complete everything and sometimes you even have deadlines to meet.

VIII. Review learning outcomes / Closure
Provide them with the final writing template outline
“I want you to write one sentence on the lines about something you are responsible for doing and the
positive result of the action.”
“For example, I am responsible for doing my chores every week and when I do them I get my
allowance.”
“Then when you have your sentence you can draw picture of you doing the work. So for my picture I
would draw me cleaning my room since that is one of my chores.”
