do you know that rules are everywhere?
we have rules at home, rules at school, rules at the store, and rules on the road!
we have rules for riding bikes, driving cars, flying airplanes, and even for swimming.
why do we know to stop at a red light and to go when the light turns green.
we know to use our indoor voices in the lunchroom and save our outdoor voices for recess.
at the store we know the rule is to take our things to the checkout lane before we leave the store!
Rules help us do the right thing.
we know rules for fire safety.
we all know the rule that we should never swim alone.
sometimes rules will change, but they are almost always made to keep us safe and to help us get along with others.
Rules are important.
