Curriculum content descriptions
Who makes rules, why rules are important and the consequences of rules not being followed (ACHASSK071)
Elaborations
- developing and justifying a set of fair rules and consequences for the class
- identifying familiar rules, how rules protect the rights of others, what their responsibilities are to others, and the consequences when rules are not followed
- considering why rules differ across contexts (for example, a library, the playground, in class, at home, in games and in cultural groups)
- discussing situations where it is not fair to have one rule that treats everyone the same, if some people (for example, students with a disability) have different needs or would be unable to follow the rules
- exploring cultural norms behind some rule-making (for example, removing shoes before entering places of cultural significance)
- identifying who has the authority to make rules (for example, at school or in a sporting club)
