My class just finished a unit on communities. It was more focused on our community and some community basics, as the majority of third grade social studies in Florida narrows in on ancient communities. Anyway, it was a short 5 question quiz, and I just HAVE to share some of the answers with you. I giggled out loud at a few. :)
2. Tell 2 things (NOT people), such as things or places, that a community needs. You must explain why a community needs those two things.
*Car dealership: in case everyone needs a car
Grocery store: for food. Cause everyone needs food.
*An abode so you can live somewhere (abode is our word of the week from last week).
*A community needs two things, a city hall and a school. A community needs these things for two reasons. One you need a city hall because if you didn't have one where would the mayor work? At his house? Two you need a school to teach young children, such as myself. So that these children grow and work at jobs to keep the community running.
*A community needs a hospital and a fire station. A community needs a hospital because if someone was in an accident and they didn't have a hospital where would they go? They also need a fire station in a community. Imagine this you're house was on fire. I mean who would you call?
3. Tell how land features can affect the development of a community (example, mountains, rivers, desert, lake, etc.).
*When you build a community you don't want to build it near mountains, you want to build it usually near water. I would suggest near a river so you could send gifts down the river to another city.
4. Name 3 jobs important to a community and explain why they are important to the community.
*A mayor is very important to communities because he/she can work out problems. So is being a school teacher because education is good (trying to earn brownie points??).
5. Describe what would happen in a community if there was no law enforcement.
*In a community, if there is no law enforcements [sic] people would be hurting each other and crashing and yelling and all of that.
*I think that bad guys would be running rampage [sic].
*If there were no laws in a community it would go bananas. There would be people not paying. Cars would be speeding which would make people get hurt. And people wouldn't be doing their jobs to help not to hurt. And it and I would go crazy.
*If there was a big fight friends would stop being friends...
*If there was no law enforcement there would be danger left and right. And the mayor might quit. And someone bad might be our mayor.
