Activity #5: “Citizenship Caterpillar”

This activity introduces the concept of citizenship and how to be a good citizen by focusing on specific examples around the classroom.

  • Green construction paper (9” x 12”)
  • Glue
  • Thick black felt pen
  • One pair of Google eyes
  • One yellow pipe cleaner

Teacher Preparation:

  • Cut each student’s face photo into a circle (laminate, if possible)
  • Cut a green construction paper circle slightly larger than the face photo for each student
  • Prepare an extra circle ot be the face of the caterpillar, and glue on googly eyes, yellow antenna, and draw on a smiling mouth with black felt pen draw on a smiling mouth with black felt pen.

    • I can recycle, reduce, reuse.
    • I can keep my desk and the classroom neat and tidy.
    • I can control my temper.

Step Three: Have students think of one or two things that they can focus on throughout the course of the day or week and write this idea in black pen on the green circle around their face.

Step Four: Pin these circles up onto the wall, forming a “citizenship caterpillar”.

 

End Product:

A caterpillar created from green circles and student faces with hints of how to be a good citizen.
